The Ashanti Regional Police Command has cautioned residents to take their personal security serious to help reduce robbery cases in the region.

Regional Police Commander, Ken Yeboah in an interview with Abusua Dawuro said policing is not the duty of the police service alone, but a a shared responsibility.

According to DCOP Ken Yeboah, robbery cases have assumed alarming rate because majority of Ghanaians do not take their personal security serious which is making the work of the police difficult.

DCOP Yeboah added, ”if Ghanaians take their personal security serious, robbery cases will reduce drastically in the country.”
