The Chief Executive Officer of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), Mr. Malik Basintale, is set to preside over the graduation ceremony for the second batch of Community Police Assistants today, marking a significant milestone in the agency’s ongoing initiative to empower youth and strengthen public safety.
With this latest cohort, the total number of recruits under the Community Police Assistant programme has reached 12,000 nationwide. The programme, a collaborative effort between YEA and the Ghana Police Service, is designed to bolster law enforcement capacity while creating valuable employment opportunities for young people across the country.
As part of the government’s broader strategy to address youth unemployment, the initiative also aims to enhance community policing and further public safety objectives nationwide.
Officials indicate that the freshly graduated recruits will soon be posted to communities throughout Ghana, where they will assist the police by increasing visibility, participating in patrols, and engaging with residents to foster a safer environment.
