Otsenkorang community appeals for police personnel

The Otsenkorang Watchdog Committee in the Agona West District has appealed to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to post police personnel to their town.

Mr Tei, one of a ten-member watchdog committee at Otsenkorang near Nyakrom in the Central Region, said upgrading their police post to a police station status, would help deal with the crime situation in the area.

He said the town has a permanent facility for a police post, but the personnel have vacated the town to Agona Nyakrom.

Mr Tei, a Purchasing Clerk of a licensed cocoa buying company, said a day hardly passes by without thieves stealing goats and cocoa beans from the town.

He said the construction of a permanent station and increasing the number of personnel would enhance police operations across the Otsenkorang communities.
