The Ghana Police Service has established a new unit, the 24-Hour Economy Security Secretariat, to coordinate security operations for the effective implementation of the government's flagship 24-Hour Economy programme.
This was announced by COP Mohammed Fuseni Suraji, Director General in charge of the National Patrol Department, during the passing-out ceremony of 233 graduate and general police recruits in Koforidua on Friday, July 4, 2025.
According to COP Suraji, the formation of the new unit demonstrates the Police Administration's commitment to aligning with government policy and ensuring a secure environment for the 24-hour economic activities envisioned under the programme.
The recruits, who underwent six months of intensive training, were equipped with skills in Police Science, Law Studies, Social Science, Public Order Management, Driving, Swimming, and Incident and Disaster Management, among others.
