At the ceremony, João Lourenço mentioned the fact that the newly inaugurated "is knowledgeable about the house due to his many years of work in this essential service of the palace routine", says a statement from the Presidency of the Republic, to which VerAngola had access.
The head of state also guided him "to continue doing selflessly what he is responsible for, now in his new position", as well as congratulating him.
"He is someone from the house, who has known the work he has done for many years and, therefore, what we expect from you is that you help the director of the Ceremonial so that, together, you can make this important body a service that dignifies the good name of the Presidency of the Republic", said the President of the Republic, quoted by Angop.
The ceremony, which was held this Wednesday morning, in the Noble Hall of the Presidential Palace, was attended by the Vice-President of the Republic, Esperança da Costa, among other members of the Executive.
It is recalled that, last Monday, the head of State dismissed, through a decree, Maria Teresa Adelaide Bento Lourenço, from the position of deputy director of the Ceremonial of the President of the Republic, having appointed Hali Aguinaldo Mateus Cassanga to replace her there .
