The Ghana Police Service has assured Ghanaians to stay calm and cooperate with the outfit in its quest to ensure the effectiveness of the lockdown restrictions.
DCOP Dr. Sayibu Gariba, Director of National Operations speaking at press briefing on Sunday, March 29, 2020 said “It is a humanitarian operation; not a war. We’re not going to intimidate anybody, we’re going to support to achieve the overall objective of the president of Ghana.”
“Prevailing circumstances mean that stricter measures have to be put in place to contain and halt the spread of the virus within our country, especially in Accra, Tema, Kasoa and Kumasi, which have been identified by the Ghana Health Service as the ‘hotspots’ of the infections,” he said.
