Such a move, he stressed, will help safeguard the service and its environment for use by staff members and the general public against the COVID-19.

The police stations that were disinfected included the Regional, District and Divisional Police Stations. Others were Boako, Asafo, and Asawinso Police Stations in the Sefwi-Wiawso District as well as Sefwi-Boinzain and Juaboso District Police Stations.

“We are all aware that police stations are mostly accessed by the general public. Therefore, this exercise will go a long way to halt the spread of COVID-19 in all the police stations in the region”, he said.
