Community groups in Kenyasi, located in the Ahafo Region, have asked for police officers to be moved if they have been stationed in the area for too long. They believe this is needed to better fight crime.
The Omanbotantim Association chairman, Frank Kofi Adusei, spoke about this issue. He stated that some police officers have remained in Kenyasi for more than the standard period.
Mr. Adusei explained that this long stay can affect how well the police do their job. It might make it harder to address the growing crime rate in the community.
The community leaders hope that bringing in new officers will bring fresh energy and new strategies to law enforcement in Kenyasi.
They want to see a more effective police presence to ensure the safety of residents.
The exact number of officers involved or how long they have served was not detailed.
The groups are calling on the Ghana Police Service to consider their request seriously.
They feel a change in personnel will directly benefit the security of Kenyasi.
