At the commissioning ceremony of the newly constructed Police Shop at the National Police Headquarters in Accra, the Vice President Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia reaffirmed Government’s dedication to supporting the Ghana Police Service.
He highlighted the significant investments made since 2017, including the provision of housing, vehicles, motorbikes and the recruitment of about 7,000 personnel.
The Minister for the Interior, Hon. Henry Quartey, expressed gratitude to the organisations and individuals who contributed to the establishment of the Police Shop. He emphasized Government’s unwavering commitment to prioritizing national security and ensuring peaceful elections in December 2024.
He assured that the Police Service and other security agencies will discharge their duties professionally to maintain law and order at all times.
The construction of the Police Shop aims to complement Government’s efforts in enhancing police infrastructure. This convenient one-stop shop will enable officers to purchase essential items, including office attire, operational gear, ceremonial wear, boots, and bags, in addition to the standard issue provided by the Service. The shop also features an online platform, allowing officers to place orders remotely.
