Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Upper West Akim, Derrick Ohene Assifo Bekoe, has implored the Ghana Police Service to increase patrols and checkpoints on highways during the festive season.
According to him, the Ghana Police Service should help curb the rate of crime and accidents on the roads during the season by increasing the number of patrols and police checkpoints.
“I will plead with the police to help us on our roads during this time. They should increase patrols and checkpoints on our highways,” he appealed.
