The Sekyere Central District Assembly is putting in place pragmatic measures to improve on the security situation and strengthen law and order in the district.

As part of the measures, the assembly is constructing police stations and a police post in three communities.

The communities are; Atwea and Asubuaso, where the police stations are being constructed, and Kruwi-Junction, which is benefiting from a police post.

Mr Kwadwo Banahene Bediako, District Chief Executive (DCE) told the Ghana News Agency during a visit to the projects sites that, the aim was to control the rising spate of social vices, while protecting lives and property in the communities.

He was accompanied by Chief Superintendent Mr Kwaku Amoako, Asante Mampong Divisional Commander of the Ghana Police Service and Superintendent Mrs Doris Amewu, the Nsuta District Police Commander.

Mr Bediako said the government was committed to ensure safe environment for everybody to undertake his or her business without fear.

He said the police station, when completed would ensure that the people lived in peace with one another, while preventing criminals from coming to the communities to attack the people.

Mr Kwaku Amoako, the Divisional Commander, assured the beneficiary communities that personnel would be posted to the stations to serve the intended purpose.

He appealed to the people to help provide accommodation for personnel who would be posted to their communities.

Members of the beneficiary communities thanked the assembly and said they were working through communal labour to construct residential accommodation for personnel who would be posted there.
