Enga Provincial Police Commander (PPC), Chief Superintendent, Steven Harris has advised the public that the Police Station Commanders (PSCs) are the primary points of contact for policing matters within their respective districts.
PPC Harris said the PSCs are responsible for day-to-day policing, responding to incidents, managing police operations, community engagement, and ensuring law and order is maintained in their areas. He said they are empowered to make operational decisions and coordinate police responses at the district level.
