Community groups in Kenyasi, Ahafo Region, are asking for police officers who have served for a long time to be reassigned. They believe this change could help fight the increase in crime.
Frank Kofi Adusei, who leads the Omanbotantim Association, spoke about the issue. He said that some police officers have been in the Kenyasi area for more than a usual amount of time.
These groups feel that bringing in new officers could lead to fresh approaches in law enforcement. They hope this will make the community safer.
The local police command has not yet responded to these requests for transfers. The community leaders are waiting for action.
Rising crime rates have been a concern for residents in Kenyasi. The CSOs hope this proposed change will have a positive impact.
