Alhaji Banda courts support for police

The Executive Chairman of Antrak Group of Companies, Alhaji Asoma Banda, has pointed out that the Ghana Police Service is severely under-resourced and poorly equipped to combat crimes in the country.

According to him, the Police Service also lacks basic logistics, such as modern communication systems, vehicles and equipment with which to attain the purpose of which it was established. Alhaji Banda made this statement when he launched the Crime Prevention Foundation (CPF) in Accra over the weekend.

The Foundation, he said, is aimed at supporting the Ghana Police Service and other Security Agencies in their difficult task to combat crime in the country.
