Inspector General of Police (IGP) Christian Tetteh Yohuno has assured that the ongoing Akwatia by-election will set a good precedent for future elections.<\/p>\n

Speaking in an interview with the media during a visit to monitor security operations on the grounds on Tuesday, September 2, he noted that there wouldn\u2019t be a repeat of election-related violence as recorded in the past.<\/p>\n

According to him, the police are committed to maintaining law and order throughout the electoral process so as to have a smooth and peaceful election.<\/p>\n

\u201cAblekuma North violence is a thing of the past. We are moving forward. As I assure you, this one will be an election that will set a tone for future elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny other election ended with some skirmishes, but I assure you that this one, with God on our side and the preparations and training, we are ready to discharge our duty without fear or favour,\u201d he assured.<\/p>\n

IGP also praised the dedication of the police, noting that all regional commanders and members of the Police Management Board (POMAB) had been deployed to work directly with officers on the ground.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very satisfied with the performance of my men. This election is such that we have all regional commanders, all POMAB members on the field, working with the personnel. Everything is going on very well,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
