He later inspected facilities of the Command and addressed a durbar of Service personnel. He admonished them to exercise great deal of discipline and good judgments in the discharge of their duties.

He commended the service personnel for their dedication to duty despites the challenges they were confronted with, and urged them not to renege on their intelligence gathering responsibilities.

The CGI assured the Service personnel of management committed towards furnishing the Command with the necessary resources and logistics that would befit the status of a Regional Command.

Mr. Kwame Asuah Takyi expressed gratitude to the Municipal Assembly for bequeathing to the Service additional offices at both the Techiman and Kintampo Commands.

He ended his working visit to the Bono East Region with a call on a sister security agency, Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) where he interacted with personnel of the GNFS and advised them to collaborate and support each other towards ensuring security in the Region.
