Residents of Assin Bediadua in the Assin North District of the Central Region are calling for the immediate use of an abandoned police station which has been left to crumble in a bush.

The ultra-modern facility, completed in the last two years and scheduled for commissioning, is now overrun by overgrown weeds, reptiles, and other creatures.

Some residents, speaking anonymously to Angel News, reveal that the place has become a gathering spot for weed smokers, while others use it for sexual escapades and other illicit activities.

Meanwhile, Martin Addo, the Assemblymember for Bediadua Electoral Area, laments that all attempts to get the attention of the Assin North District Assembly have been futile.

He emphasized that the community is weary of continually clearing the area of weeds while the station remains unused, neglecting the safety and security needs of the people.

Once operational, the police station will serve a population of about 2,000 in Assin North and parts of Twifo Atti-Morkwa.
