Good news for businesses operating 24-hour services

Ghana's 24-hour policing initiative provides businesses with security personnel to support their round-the-clock operations. Deputy Minister for the Interior, Ebenezer Okletey Terlabi, encouraged businesses to apply for police personnel through the initiative, which aims to strengthen security for night-time operations and create a safer environment for the burgeoning 24-hour economy.

The deployment of police personnel is not a temporary measure or publicity stunt, as the legal framework has been established with the necessary bill passed by Parliament and approved by President John Dramani Mahama. The rollout of the initiative is ongoing and will not be abandoned, according to Terlabi. He emphasized that the 24-hour policing initiative is a structured government program designed to provide the necessary security for businesses operating beyond traditional working hours.

Terlabi urged businesses to take advantage of the arrangement and submit their applications to the appropriate authorities, as the initiative is part of broader government efforts to ensure a secure environment for businesses and workers during nighttime operations.
