The Joint Association of Port Transport Unions (JAPTU) Ghana, which is the umbrella body of all transport associations/unions operating from the sea ports of Ghana, held a meeting with the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Commissioner of Police Christian Tetteh Yohunu, and members of the Police Management Board (POMAB) on Monday, July 21, 2025, at the Ghana Police Headquarters in Accra.
This high-level engagement marked a significant turning point in strengthening collaboration between the Ghana Police Service and the trucking sector to ensure safety and security along the nation's critical transit corridors.
The leadership of JAPTU Ghana is overwhelmingly encouraged by the IGP's personal commitment and the assurances provided by POMAB to address the spate of armed attacks and criminal incidents that have endangered the lives of truck drivers, particularly those transporting transit goods across the Tema-Paga, Tema-Hamile, and Tema-Elubo corridors.
The open dialogue, frank exchange of information, and the mutual resolve to act decisively reflect the Police Service's unwavering dedication to restoring public trust and protecting the livelihoods of those who keep Ghana's trade supply chains moving.
