My Experience with His Excellency Mokhtar Ould Jay: Commitment to Law and Dedication to National Interest

I would like to offer a well-deserved tribute to His Excellency Mokhtar Ould Jay on the occasion of his recent appointment as Prime Minister of the new government. During his tenure as chairman of the board of directors of the company managing oil facilities, a position in which I had the honor of serving as a board member, I had the invaluable opportunity to work closely with His Excellency and appreciate his exceptional managerial skills. He demonstrated an unwavering commitment to ensuring that all transactions and agreements were conducted within strict legal frameworks, unequivocally rejecting any deviations or manipulations.

His Excellency distinguished himself by his ability to complete projects within the precisely set deadlines, reflecting his remarkable efficiency and prudent, wise management. Possessing a profound sense of patriotism, he vigorously defended the national interests against our international partners. Despite their relentless attempts to secure dubious concessions through offers of bribes and under-the-table payments, he maintained a firm and uncompromising stance, always adhering to principles of transparency and integrity..

His Excellency was a paragon of adherence to the highest ethical standards, which was evident in his meticulous care to safeguard the country's interest above all. His integrity and uprightness in performing his duties made him a symbol of responsibility and transparency at a time when we are in dire need of such virtues. His wise leadership will undoubtedly be a valuable asset to the newly formed government, and he will continue to serve the nation with dedication and selflessness..

I hope that His Excellency the Minister will preside over a technocratic government, whose members will be chosen from experts specialized in the fields they will manage, such as economics, education, fisheries, health, petroleum, and other technical areas. His appreciation for expertise undoubtedly makes him capable of forming a highly skilled cabinet, favoring technical expertise over traditional political or tribal affiliations, with the ultimate goal of improving governmental performance and achieving sustainable development..

In conclusion, I would like to thank Mr. President Mohamed Cheikh El Ghazouani for this wise choice. Appointing His Excellency Mokhtar Ould Ajay is indeed the best decision, and I wish him all the success in leading the government towards a promising and successful future..
