<p><strong>“This will be preparation towards the calling back of the police trainees who had to be sent home to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic from the initial stages.</strong></p>



<p><strong> ;It is believed that the exercise when completed will create a more conducive and safe atmosphere for habitation, and the rest will depend on conforming to the preventive measures which have already been outlined His Excellency, the President of the Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo,” he said.</strong></p>



<p><strong>The IGP used the opportunity to express the Police Administration’s gratitude to the CEO and staff members of Zoomlion Ghana Limited for partnering the Ghana Police Service to undertake this important exercise.</strong></p>
