“Allow me on behalf of the Board to thank the Kaseke family, industry, and all our stakeholders for the support and cooperation given both to the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority and Dr. KK during these past two years. We would like to kindly request you to continue with your support and cooperation as we recruit a new Chief Executive for the organization,” Dr. Precious Sibiya, the ZTA Acting Board Chairperson said in an announcement today.
