The donors explained that the project is an indication of their belief in supporting initiatives that drive positive change, enhance public safety and promote community development.

He entreated the community to work together with the police to promote a culture of respect, understanding and cooperation.
Dr. Budu expressed his profound gratitude to Nana Adwoa Sika Brayie, the Queen of Asotwe, Nananom and the elders for their support towards the successful completion of the project.
