AYA BOOTH HIRED AS CHIEF OF STAFF, FILLING SPOT AFTER MIRANDA LEAVES by Samuel Divian TOFINO - President Castovia has hired Aya Booth, the former board member at ZSuites Incorporated dealing with management and consultation, as the new Chief of Staff, as the replacement for Emily Miranda, who resigned on Tuesday. Booth was seen as a possibility for the position since Castovia's reelection in September, but when Miranda was ultimately chosen, Booth was still eyed for possible cabinet positions. Now in the realm of the President's staff, she will be responsible for hiring junior staffers and helping the President with official tasks including legislative responsibilities and national security assessments. Castovia welcomed her to the position in a press briefing on Wednesday, also answering questions regarding the recent investigation into his cabinet's ethics and values, which was the ultimate reasoning for Miranda's resignation. The President and his senior staff were acquitted of all charges and allegations, but Miranda was found guilty of accepting monetary compensation in return for lobbying and vote-telling.
