MUSIGHA TO COLLABORATE WITH POLICE

The Ghana Police Service and the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGHA) have held talks to collaborate to promote their common interest.

The two organizations have been playing complementary roles for the benefit of the publics they serve.

A delegation led by the president of the Union, Mr. Bice Osei Kuffuor paid a courtsey call on the Inspector General of Police.

Oseif Kuffour said that the relationship would help the association to enforce the copyright law, which is so much flouted.

He also commended the Police highly for their performance in recent times.

On his part, the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Ahmed Alhassan lauded the move, and pledged the commitment of the Police Administration to the cause of the partnership.

He was upbeat about the union between the two, and said it would create a congenial atmosphere for the enhancement of socio-economic activities in the country.

Mr. Alhassan was particularly happy about the formalization of the relationship between the Police and MUSIGHA, as any dealings of the Police with the music industry in the past had been mainly individualistic.

While the Women Organizer of MUSIGHA, Ms. Della Hayes expressed her desire of dealing with the women groups in the Service to empower the womenfolk generally, the Director-General/Operations, COP/Mr. John Kudalor assured the group of the co-operation of the Police Administration.

Also present at the meeting were the Head of Communication and Special Projects, Mr. Ahuma Ocansey, alias Daddy Bosco; the National Welfare Officer, Mr. J.V Owusu, and the Director/Public Affairs of Police, DSP Cephas Arthur.

In another development, a cluster of schools in Accra, represented by Al-Waleed JHS called on the Police Administration to solicit the support of the Police for their Walk to educate the public on Ebola.

Receiving the group, the Director-General/Operations, COP/Mr. John Kudalor expressed admiration for the bold venture, and assured the group of the support of the Police in their enterprise.

The Project Initiator, Rev. Emmanuel Amarquaye of Wisewater Foundation presented some posters and book-makers with information on the Ebola disease to the Police.
