Dr. Akuffo-Dampare and some members of the police management board are touring the north-east region to asses the security situation there.
The tour will also afford the IGP and his team the opportunity to touch base with the Police command and all personnel of the region for a first hand information on any welfare, operational and administrative challenges they are confronted with.
So far, the IGP and his team have toured over 80 percent of the country and actively engaged both police officers and the general public. Similar engagements have been undertaken by Regional, Divisional and District Police Commands across the country.
