Charging the new appointees, he urged them to read voraciously and always thirst for knowledge, noting that the challenge that existed in the ICT Sector was really huge.
"The challenge as a Governing Board Member in the ICT Sector is a huge one, you cannot deliver effective and efficient services without reading, learning, unlearning and relearning," Pantami said.
