Mr Ofori has, therefore, advised them to perform the duties and responsibilities that will be assigned with the highest degree of public trust (in the context of discipline), as well as a sense of urgency.

Laziness, absenteeism, lateness, insubordination, disrespect, Mr Ofori advised, should be eschewed in the course of the three-year period that the graduates would be under the programme.

The NPP Member of Parliament for the Ablekuma North Constituency, Nana Akua Owusu Afriyieh, conceded that there were bound to be some challenges at the implementation stages of the programme, but she was of the firm belief that with time, they would be solved.
