The President entreated the ministers to work towards achieving policies promised Ghanaians by the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) during the 2016 general elections.
The president also urged them to declare their assets, adding that they should discharge their service with humility.
"The second is the requirement of integrity in the exercise of your function. You are here to advance the public interest, not your personal fortune.
