He said disciplinary action once taken will not be reversed further urging them to remain steadfast towards quality service delivery.
The governor however warned the local community against politicising any action taken against any staff who absconded from duties.
“Let the action to tame them against absconding duties, take a clan dimension, we need to improve in service delivery by handling the lazy and absentee workers," said Mohamed.

He urged senior officials to take account of service delivery and performance appraisals in their workplace.
