Techiman MP Appeals For Police Barracks

Techiman (B/A), 11 June

The MP for Techiman South, Alhaji Kwadwo Mama Adam, has called on government to provide a barracks and an office accommodation for the Ghana Police Service at Techiman. Alhaji Adam told the GNA at Techiman, that the establishment of a barracks would enable police personnel to discharge their duties more diligently. He said while Techiman has assumed the position of a major marketing centre for agricultural produce, the opportunities created a conducive atmosphere for crimes in the district. He enumerated criminal activities such as gambling, stealing, burglary, shop-lifting, among others which pose a challenge to the police. The provision of these facilities, Alhaji Adam said, are important to keep the police under one roof for easy and rapid deployment in times of need. He commended the police in the district for their efficiency despite the constraints.
