\u201cAs we speak, our officers are monitoring the situation, observing, and intervening whenever necessary,\u201d she stated. \u201cWe\u2019ll be responding to issues and updating the public with facts as they emerge.\u201d<\/p>\n
To ensure a smooth and peaceful process, ACP Ansah Akrofi encouraged the public to report any incidents to the police via their toll-free number, 0800311311. \u201cOur officers are ready to respond to situations as they arise,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
She also cautioned against spreading unverified information, emphasising the importance of accuracy and truth in maintaining a peaceful and successful electoral process.<\/p>\n
