191 emergency access to Police introduced

The Vice-President has announced that Ghana Police can now be reached on the special emergency number 191 to address enquiries anytime and anywhere.
Dr Mahamudu Bawumia said the era of memorising and dialling different contact numbers for specific police stations and offices has become a thing of the past.
“You can dial 191 from any part of Ghana and you will get a police call centre and they will respond to your needs.
“We don’t have to try to remember many numbers of different police stations. If you want the police just dial 191 and you will get responses” he added.
Dr Bawumia said this at the 2017 West African Security Services Activities (WASSA) of the Ghana Police Service 2017 held at the Integrity Square, Ghana Police Headquarters, Accra last Friday.

The emergency number 191, is linked to the digital address system to make it easy to locate a place and also reduce the stress of memorising numbers of the call centres of the police.
He admonished the police to also explore using technology to help policing in Ghana.
“Let us explore how we can use technology to help in our policing,” he said.
The Vice President also urged the police to make good use of the formalisation of the economy to help reduce crimes.
“The introduction of the national identification system together with the digital address system should help in the crime -stoppers efforts” Dr Bawumia added.
The emergency call system will also provide detailed information on callers to aid the police in their work.
Present at the event was the Interior Minister, Ambrose Dery, the Inspector General of Police, the Chief of Defence Staff, members of the Police Management Board (POMAB) and the heads of the other security agencies.

Ghana Ranks 1st in World Manhood Ranking

A graph revealing the average size of a man’s erect penis from all over the world has surfaced online and Africa is topping the list. Ghanaian men have the world’s largest penises, while Nigerian ranks 5th according to the latest ranking. South African men are ranked at number 10. It appears countries such as Asian countries such as India, Thailand and South Korea are not as gifted in terms of ‘eggplant’ as they are sitting at the bottom of the table. Nigeria is in the top five with Gabon, Jamaica, and Haiti. Target Map published a graph showing the differing lengths of a male’s manhood size across the World and Africa, Western Africa particular, takes the top spot.

Easter celebrations: 3 drown at Tawala beach on Good Friday

Three persons are reported dead after they drowned at the Tawala Beach at La in Accra. The deceased were part of a youth fellowship team of fifteen people who went to the beach to pray on Good Friday. The incident occurred after some of the team members decided to swim after their prayer session. In an attempt to save their drowning friend, the two others also drowned. Speaking to Citi News, a brother of one of the deceased, Kwame Mac-Joseph, said the absence of lifeguards at the Tawala beach is to blame for the deaths. “In the course of the swimming, one person was drowning and the next person wanted to help and he got drowned. The third person who also wanted to help also got drowned.” He said some of the onlookers were unwilling to help because they were not experienced enough in swimming, and were also terrified. “There was no rescue team or indigenous people readily available to help. The onlookers were looking at this three gentlemen drowning.” “We just received a call ...
