The Regional Commander, Francis Doku, said the exercise to create a new region that will be known as the Oti Region will come on as planned.

He said the police will make sure that the exercise on December 27 will be devoid of any altercations.

Mr Doku said this when Mr Ambrose Dery, Minister for Interior, paid a working visit to the Region. He said the Regional Command had been able to stem crime through public engagements, intensified police/military patrols and cultivation of credible informants.READ ALSO: Tourism Ministry to spend $14m on capacity building and branding
