President Hilda Heine welcomed Gerald Zackios to her inner circle as a Cabinet Minister following a swear-in ceremony Monday December 30 2024 at the Cabinet Conference Room. Gerald will be undertaking the ministerial portfolio of Education, Sports and Training, replacing outgoing Minister Joe Bejang. The former Minister Bejang had placed a letter of resignation earlier in the year to focus on personal matters. The event was witnessed by Parliament Members, Cabinet Ministers and family members. Minister Gerald’s daughter, Katt Chong Gum, joined her father during the oath ceremony that was presided by Chief Justice Carl Ingram.
