Community groups in Kenyasi, Ahafo Region, want the police command to move officers who have stayed in the area for a long time. They believe this change is needed to better address growing crime concerns.
Frank Kofi Adusei, who leads the Omanbotantim Association, spoke about the issue. He shared that some police officers have been stationed in Kenyasi for more than the usual period.
These groups feel that having officers in place for extended durations might reduce their effectiveness in tackling evolving criminal activities.
The CSOs are calling for fresh perspectives and renewed energy within the local police force.
They believe officers with longer tenures might become less responsive to new challenges.
The transfer of officers is seen as a way to bring new strategies and improve public safety.
This request highlights community concerns about law enforcement's current approach to crime in Kenyasi.
The Omanbotantim Association hopes the police administration will consider their plea to enhance security.
