Isabel Province will celebrate its 41st Second Appointed Day on Monday 2nd June 2025.

This important occasion marks 41 years since Isabel attained its provincial status on 2nd June 1984.

Minister for Provincial Government and Institutional Strengthening, Wayne Ghemu, has congratulated the people and leaders of Isabel Province ahead of the celebration.

“The Ministry would like to join you in commemorating the historic occasion of the attainment of your Second Appointed Day on 2nd June 1984,” the Minister said in a statement.

He also extended greetings to Premier Lawrence Hayward Kile, the Provincial Executive, Members of the Isabel Provincial Assembly, Speaker Eddie Kopala, the Provincial Administration, and the good people of Isabel Province.

“On behalf of the Government for National Unity and Transformation (GNUT), I wish to acknowledge and thank the Isabel Provincial Government, Chiefs, Church Leaders, Community Leaders, and your good people for your ongoing partnership and collaboration with the National Government towards the development of your province and our country,” he said.

Last year’s 40th Second Appointed Day was a historic celebration, as it was graced by Prime Minister Hon. Jeremiah Manele, the first son of Isabel Province to hold the highest office in the country.

The Prime Minister received a traditional welcome on arrival at Buala, including a special chair-lifting ceremony by traditional warriors—a proud and emotional moment for the people of Isabel.
