Inspector General of Police Meets with Ghana Used Clothing Dealers Association Executives on Sales Protection and Christmas Sales Protection within Kantamanto Environs
During the meeting, it was emphasized that community policing is crucial for effective crime prevention and control. The Inspector General highlighted the importance of building trust and strong relationships between the police and the community in order to effectively address crime during the busy Christmas season (Mazerolle et al., 2020). This can be achieved through various strategies such as community meetings, developing partnerships with the Ghana Used Clothing Dealers Association, police liaison programs involving community members, and routine police work that explicitly seeks to promote community connectedness. The use of community policing strategies, such as building partnerships and promoting engagement with the Ghana Used Clothing Dealers Association, can help improve safety and security. The police applauded the Ghana Used Clothing Association for taking the initiate to install CCTV cameras all around to protect individuals and properties.
