Ho, Nov. 02 GNA – Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), Reverend Francis Amenuvor, has asked personnel of the Ghana Police Service to commit themselves wholly to God and trust in him.

The solemn event brought together heads of sister security agencies, government officials, traditional leaders, bereaved families and the media.
