Ghana Police Service commissions ultra-modern police post at UPSA

The Ghana Police Service, in collaboration with the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), has commissioned an ultra-modern police post on the university’s campus in Accra.

Speaking during the brief ceremony organised by the two partnering institutions, the Interior Minister, Hon. Mubarak Mohammed Muntaka, expressed his heartfelt congratulations to the Ghana Police Service as well as the entire UPSA community for achieving this important milestone.

He also commended the Vice Chancellor of the University for his foresight, hard work, and dedication in partnering with the Police Service to establish the police post.

According to him, the establishment of the post is a testament to the Mahama government’s commitment to enhancing security and providing better policing services to citizens.

“Let me commend the Vice Chancellor for UPSA for your foresight and good work and dedication to partnering with the Ghana Police Service in putting up this police post. The establishment of this police post is a testament to our government’s commitment to enhancing security and providing better policing services to our citizens,” he furthered.

Meanwhile, the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Christian Tetteh Yohuno, reaffirmed that the newly established police post at UPSA will enhance service delivery and fulfil the police’s promise of bringing policing closer to the Ghanaian people to make it more accessible.

He said the construction of the new police post by the university community is a testament to their unwavering commitment to ensuring safety and security on campus. It also reflects a proactive approach in addressing the unique security needs of the area and in building a stronger partnership between the university and the police service.

Mr. Yohuno assured the UPSA community that the Police Service will do its best to enforce law and order and maintain peace to the best of its ability and that the post will be used for its intended purpose.

The Vice Chancellor of the University of Professional Studies, Accra, Professor John Kweku Mensah Mawutor, said there is always a need to partner with the police to help them carry out their mandate, which is why the school decided to invest in providing a post on land given by the government.
