In preparation for the upcoming polls, the Police have reiterated their commitment to ensuring comprehensive security measures. Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCOP) Prince Gabriel Waabu has affirmed that no effort will be spared in safeguarding the electoral process.
Traditionally, the Police Service has identified certain areas as hotspots, necessitating heightened security presence. These areas are recognized for their potential volatility and require strategic deployment of security resources.
However, DCOP Waabu has underscored that every constituency is being treated as a potential hotspot. This approach reflects a proactive stance towards security, acknowledging the dynamic nature of potential risks across the entire country.
While acknowledging the known hotspots, DCOP Waabu emphasized the importance of not concentrating solely on these areas, as it could lead to oversight of other locations with similar potential. This comprehensive approach demonstrates a commitment to thorough security planning and vigilance.
Furthermore, it was highlighted that the Police have implemented specific structures and strategies to ensure the safety and security of citizens during the electoral process. This proactive stance aims to mitigate any potential security challenges and maintain public confidence in the electoral process.
DCOP Waabu expressed confidence in the professionalism displayed during internal party elections and affirmed the commitment to upholding these standards during the upcoming polls. This emphasis on professionalism underscores the dedication of the Police Service to ensuring a secure and orderly electoral process.
As the nation approaches the polls, the assurance from the Police Service serves as a reassurance of their unwavering commitment to maintaining security and upholding the integrity of the electoral process. With a comprehensive and proactive approach, the Police are resolute in their endeavor to leave no stone unturned in safeguarding the democratic exercise.
