Public Service and Administration Minister Inkosi Mzamo Buthelezi has welcomed the signing of an agreement between the National School of Government (NSG) and the E’cole Nationale d’Administration (ENA) – the national school of administration in Burundi.
The two institutions signed a Memorandum of Understanding in Pretoria on Wednesday to facilitate cooperation on educating, training, and developing public servants and trainers.
The MoU was signed by Professor Busani Ngcaweni, NSG Principal, Professor Jean de Dieu Ndikumana, the Director General of ENA, witnessed by the Ambassador of Burundi to South Africa, Alexis Bukuru.
Minister Buthelezi said the agreement was an important development in cementing relations between the two institutions and the two countries.
He added that it contributed to the implementation of the African Union’s objectives, to build state capacity and to build stronger states and a functional, capable and efficient public sector on the African continent.
“The NSG will play its role in contributing towards building capacity in Burundi, while South Africa has a lot to learn from Burundi as well, as the country has the invaluable experience of having to rebuild state capacity after a protracted war. We wish both the NSG and ENA the best in the implementation of this agreement,” Minister Buthelezi said.
The MoU enables the parties to collaborate in the following areas:
- Capacity building for teacher trainers, trainer professionalisation programme and the digital or virtual art of facilitation
- The joint development and implementation of continuous training actions for senior executives of ENA
- The exchange of trainees between the NSG and ENA
- Collaboration in research and sharing of experiences on the development of a new journal
- Allowing the NSG and ENA researchers of the same academic areas to write, publish and conduct academic and innovation conferences together and
- Setting up study visits and exchange of officials.
Ngcaweni and Ndikumana said they looked forward to implementing the partnership to empower public servants in their respective countries. – SAnews.gov.za

So I\’m real good friends with this guy named Juan Ted. Now, Juan is a pretty amazing guy. He can steal ANYTHING he wants to. Literally anything. It could be the shirt off your back, the wallet in your pocket, or I\’m even sure he\’d find a way to steal your house (And your spouse too). So anyway, one day Juan and I are sitting around watching TV, and they announced that the hope diamond will not be on display anymore and is now getting moved to an undisclosed location. So as we hear this, Juan says \”I\’m gonna steal it\”. Now I know how good Juan is at this kind of stuff, so I just tell him good luck and he goes on his way. Eventually he narrows his search down to a small cave in South Africa. When Juan gets there, he doesn\’t see any guards or anything outside the cave, so he just walks in assuming he was wrong about where the diamond was. He wanders around for a while until he sees a long lit hallway with the hope diamond at the end of it. Confident in his abilities, he strolls over to the diamond and picks it up before realizing its a trap! Suddenly, red lights flashed, armed men came running out, sirens went off. You could hear one of the men say under his breath \”We finally caught Juan Ted.\” But Juan, being the best thief in the world, said \”Not quite. On the count of three, I will disappear.\” As the men looked around confused, Juan began to count. \”Uno. Dos.\” And he disappeared without a tres.
