IGP calls for deeper collaboration between Police Service and KAIPTC
The Inspector General of Police (IGP) of Ghana, Mr. David Asante-Apeatu, has highlighted the need to strengthen the rapport between the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC), and the Ghana Police Service, to achieve shared goals on peace and security in the nation and beyond.
“We can further collaborate to explore other critical areas of policing, including counter terrorism, transnational organized crime, human trafficking and proliferation of small arms”.

Cette mesure, estime-t-il, ne servira pas seulement les services de police nationale, mais aussi les services de police des autres pays de la sous-région de la CEDEAO.
