Too early to pick and assigned those people on the said positions. In my opinion,there should be elections as well in the said position as it will held liable in the cpuntry’s Budget and credibility. Appointee must be a well known and an expert too. They should not rush by this time. Plan and think it over. Hope they will pick the-not-so corrupt person.
