Go out in groups at night – Police advises community

DSP John Furgurson Dzineku, Jomoro District Police Commander has advised the general public, especially those at Nuba and Mpataba near Half-Assini to go out in groups at night to ward-off unsuspecting attackers.

DSP Dzineku gave the advice in an interview with the GNA following the recent murder of a 75-year-old man, Edward Anlimah at Nyameke Suazo, a suburb of Nuba, on Sunday, July 31.

He said the deceased was allegedly killed by a friend, Kwa Kodwo Abi, a fellow farmer who had invited him to a nearby community for a drink.

The accused has been detained and is assisting the police in their investigations.

DSP Dzineku said since he assumed office barely a year ago there has been about 20 of such killings for ritual purposes in the area and described the situation as alarming.

DSP Dzineku said to arrest the situation, the District Police Command would embark upon a public awareness and sensitization program on security and safety in all the communities.
