Head of Public Affairs for the Accra Regional Police Command, Superintendent Juliana Obeng, has assured the public of stringent security measures for the forthcoming Homowo Festival.
Addressing the press on Monday, July 7, Superintendent Obeng revealed that a specialised team has been established, comprising officers from the regional command and members of the traditional council.
This collaboration, according to her, aims to ensure seamless coordination and to prevent any untoward incidents before, during, and after the festival. "We are very much aware of the Homowo Festival that has almost started and can assure the general public that there will be adequate security for the celebration," she stated.
She further appealed to the local community for their support and cooperation, emphasising the police's role in protecting the indigenes throughout the festivities. "We would want the indigenes to know that we are here to protect them and so we would need their cooperation and support," Superintendent Obeng added.
