The Northern Command of the Ghana Armed Forces and the Northern Regional Police Command have each received 500 tubers of yam from the Kworli Area Farmers and Fishermen Association (KAFAFA) in recognition of their roles to promote peace and order in society.
Naa Alhaji Dawuda Mohammed Jawara, President and Life Patron of KAFAFA, who presented the yams to representatives of the Northern Command of the Ghana Armed Forces and the Northern Regional Police Command in Tamale on Tuesday, said it was to foster good relations between civilians and the security agencies.
