Police Service

The Police Service is the only security institution in the district. The only Police Station is at Jacobu, the district capital. The station uses a rented house as office as well as residential accommodation for some officers. The accommodation situation is very precarious and needs utmost attention.

Similarly, the Police lack logistics. For instance there is no official vehicle neither do they have any modern communication gadgets. Low number of personnel coupled with lack of logistic support makes maintenance of peace and order extremely difficult. These are urgent needs that need urgent solutions

Court System
