A nation’s prosperity and stability are greatly dependent on the professionalism and integrity of its institutions. The impartiality and fairness of decision-making are compromised when prominent government agencies are affected by political interests and prejudices. Crucial appointments should be allowed based on qualifications and competencies rather than political affiliation to build an efficient and functioning government. Professional institutions encourage accountability, openness, and effective service delivery and are also helpful to a thriving business environment. Meritocracy should be immediately adhered to by all political parties to create a favorable climate for investment, innovation, and social justice.
