The Dormaa East District Police Commander, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Augustine Kingsley Oppong, has said that general crime has been reduced in the Dormaa East District in the Bono region.
He has, therefore, expressed appreciation to all stakeholders in the district for their support, saying the police would continue to rely on the public in fighting crime.
Speaking in an interview at Wamfie, the district capital, ASP Kingsley Oppong said fighting crime remains a shared and collective responsibility.
“With assistance from the public, the police can successfully bring crime to the barest minimum, and thereby, create a safe society”, he said.
He said the command would not relax but continue to put in place measures, intensify patrols, and enhance personnel visibility at Wamfie and adjoining settlements, saying the command has increased efforts to stem substance abuse and peddling among the youth in the area.
ASP Kingsley Oppong said the police are also collaborating with the District Security Committee (DISEC) to halt the activities of illegal miners in the district and urged the people to endeavor to provide information about people with questionable characters and strange movements in the localities.
