The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Christian Tetteh Yohuno has revealed plans to lift the restriction on police personnel engaging with the media, a policy that was implemented by former IGP George Akuffo Dampare. Speaking at a workshop for Public Relations Officers (PROs) on Thursday, March 20, IGP Yohuno emphasized the importance of public cooperation in fighting crime.
He noted that effective policing relies on strong engagement between law enforcement and the communities they serve."No society can effectively combat crime without the support and collaboration of its people.
This is why effective policing is a partnership that requires officers to work closely with the communities they serve to foster a safer and crime-free environment," he stated.
To enhance transparency and communication, the IGP assured that all Regional PROs and Police Affairs offices would be reactivated and improved to facilitate better interactions with both the public and the media.
