He further urged them to sustain this collaboration, emphasizing that dedicated teamwork and diligent efforts are key to resolving security issues and implored them to execute their duties with the utmost care and professional integrity.
Minister Lengor, Esq., also announced that he would engage the Sierra Leone Police across the Western Area and other regions to map out a proactive security strategy. He mentioned that criminality typically increases during the rainy season, noting that crime often spikes during heavy rains, as criminals use the weather to target vulnerable households.
