POLICE LOOK FOR OWNER OF LOST MONEY

-

 The Tafo Pankrono Police District Police in Kumasi says it has taken custody of an amount of money said to have fallen from a moving motorbike about two weeks ago. 

A statement signed by ASP Yusif Mohammed Tanko of the Regional Police Command explained that the money was found and deposited with the Pankrono Police by a good Samaritan. 

The statement therefore urges the owner of the money to go to the Pankrono Police district for identification and collection.


In another development, the Ashanti Regional Police Command has established an anti-Land Guard Unit to check the incidence of land guard activities that is gaining root in the Kumasi metropolis.

 A statement signed and issued to the media by the head of the Public Affairs Unit of the Command, ASP Yusif Mohammed Tanko noted that it has come to the attention of the Regional Police Command that in recent days, land owners within the metropolis have reported that land guards have been subjecting them to harassment and criminal acts. 

It warned that the Police Command will not look on for such criminal activities to occur. 

The statement therefore encouraged all persons who have problems with land guards to report such matters at the Regional Police headquarters in Kumasi for prompt action. 

It warned people who have held themselves out as land guards to desist from such criminal activities, else they will be arrested and arraigned before court.

The once Industrial enclave of the Ashanti region within the Kumasi metropolis is fast losing its status as the nerve centre of jobs for the people.     This is due to the collapse of most of the companies in quick succession in  the last few years for various reasons. Background Industrialization was a key component of the first wholly indigenous government of Ghana led by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. The Ashanti region was not left out in this drive which was meant to create decent jobs for the residents, particularly the youth.  Asokwa, Ahinsan, Kaase, Atonsu and Kyirapatre were the communities that became what is known as the ‘Industrial Area’ of Ashanti from the early 60s.  The christening of this enclave as the ‘Industrial Area’ was the people’s appreciation of the numerous state and privately owned companies that were sited there.  These communities fall within present day Asokwa Constituency whic...

New Campus of the Kwamang Presby SHS The Kwamang Presby Senior High/Technical School in the Sekyere Central district of Ashanti needs an urgent external intervention to address some of its pressing basic needs to function very well.  A visit by Ashanti Today to the school’s premises revealed that the school does not have an administrative block to administer affairs of the school for which reason the Headmistress, the Bursar and another staff are sharing one room which has been partitioned, while the Assistant Headmaster, the rest of the Accounts staff among other administrative officers are also working from an improvised classroom. Anybody who visits the Kwamang Presby Senior High Technical school for the first time will unavoidably take it for a basic school.  This is more so when it appears to be perching on the premises of the local Junior High School as its old site.  The school is wallowing in a myriad of challenges that are seriously milit...
