“All the children are going to schools and the rate of crimes has completely dropped. And, this week only one criminal case was reported in all the five counties, and we seek that the state will reach its last level,” said Commissioner of Police in the state, Major-General James Monday.
Major-General Monday appealed to the residents to work with the police to restore stability and security in the state.
