The Ghana Police Service has issued a strong warning to criminals across the country to abandon unlawful activities or face arrest as security operations are intensified to enhance public safety.
The warning was issued by Christian Tetteh Yohuno on Tuesday, May 19, during a ceremony where the Mobile Money Advocacy Group Ghana presented him with a plaque and citation in recognition of efforts to combat crime within the mobile money sector.
Addressing the gathering, the Inspector General of Police reiterated the Service’s commitment to protecting citizens and pursuing criminals, particularly those involved in attacks targeting mobile money operators and vendors.
“We want to sound a strong warning to criminals wherever they are that we will not give up in our endeavour to make sure we protect Ghanaians. They should lay down their arms and stop committing crime because whatever they do and wherever they hide in this modern day of policing, they can run, but they cannot hide,” he stated.
Mr. Yohuno further stressed that modern policing methods and technological advancements are strengthening the Police Service’s ability to track down offenders and ensure justice is served.
President of the Mobile Money Advocacy Group Ghana, Edward Ofori-Agyemang, praised the IGP’s leadership and dedication in tackling crime.
He also called on the Police Service to sustain its operations against criminals, especially those targeting mobile money agents and vendors, to strengthen security and improve public confidence within the sector.
