Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo, Greater Accra Regional Minister has called on departmental heads to be up to their duties by checking punctuality, absenteeism and laziness.

He said punctuality to work was the soul of business and urged workers to adapt to such habit so as to help the government to undertake its developmental projects in the communities.
