Oda police want telephone lines restored

Akim Oda (Eastern Region) 27 July '99

The Police in the Akim Oda division have called for restoration of their disconnected telephone lines to promote effective police work.

Chief Inspector J.K. Abban of the Eastern Region police public relations unit made the call at a public forum at Akim Oda on Saturday.

He said the disconnection of the telephone lines, early this year, is hampering efficient performance of their work and hoped the authorities would take up the issue for an early solution.

The forum discussed the public order act regarding the holding of special events such as outdooring of traditional rulers, celebration of festivals and demonstrations among others, for which the organisers must inform the police not less than five days before the event.
