BOSOMTWI RURAL BANK SUPPORTS ASOKWA POLICE (PAGE 46, NOV 4, 2010)

The Board of Governors and Management of Bosomtwe Rural Bank have donated a brand new computer and its accessories to the district police in response to an appeal made to the bank by the Asokwa District Police Command in Kumasi.
The district police command had appealed to the bank for a computer and accessories, as its only computer at the Asokwa District Police in Kumasi had broken down several months ago, hindering the smooth discharge of their official duties.
The Chairman of the Board of Governors of Bosomtwe Rural Bank , Mr Philip Bondah, told the Daily Graphic that the response to the request of the police followed the smooth collaboration between the bank and the district police command.
He explained that the Asokwa District Police Command had been providing adequate security at two of their branches at Atonsu and Dadiesoaba in Kumasi, and the support had enhanced the smooth operations of Bosomtwe Rural Bank in Kumasi over the years.
Mr Bondah said as part of the bank’s social responsibility, the Bosomtwe Rural Bank had also supported the Kuntanase Police to repair their broken down vehicle, which was smashed recently in an accident.
He said while the computer cost the bank GH¢1,400.00, the cost the bank GH¢1,200 to repair the broken down vehicle.
The Asokwa District Police Commander, Mr M. K. Ayiih, who received the items on behalf of the district police, commended the board and management of the Bosomtwe Rural Bank for responding positively to their request. He said the gesture would facilitate their operations.
He said it was important for the public to support the police in diverse ways as they addressed the security concerns in the Kumasi Metropolis.
That, he said, would enable law abiding citizens to focus on their core businesses and generate the needed revenue to support sustainable national development.
