More check points will be set up along the country’s major highways ahead of the Christmas festivities.
It’s one of the strategies being used by the police administration to ensure passengers travel in safety during the yuletide.
Commander of the Armoured Car Squadron of the Ghana Police Service, Chief Supt. Hamza Yakubu, disclosed this in an interview with Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on Monday.
He said the police is planning ahead to ensure preparedness to deal with the various security challenges that may come up during the season.
“The high ways have been covered adequately…and as we speak we are aware that the government is making frantic efforts to give us some vehicles that will enable us put up more checkpoints along the highways to make sure people travel incident-free this yuletide,” he said.
Chief Supt. Yakubu said the various regional commanders are devising their own security strategies to handle crime during the season.
“The arrangement involves all the regional commands so they have been directed to draw their own strategies. In fact they have submitted their own operational plans to the headquarters and this is being studied by a team of operational experts,” he said.
