As he did prior to the June 24, 2023 multitier elections in the eastern part of Freetown that saw smooth operations throughout the electioneering period, the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr. William Fayia Sellu, has replicated same in Freetown West.

The recent transfer of Local Unit Commanders (LUCs) from key Divisions is clear indication that it is no more business as usual but time to work assiduously in the

Western Area. It could be recalled that Freetown East was a troublesome area that always gave tough time to the police. But as a seasoned administrator and crime buster, Mr. William Fayia Sellu made some postings in strategic areas including Waterloo and Ross Road Divisions that saw the restoration of sanity and easy policing throughout the electioneering period and beyond. With the Saturday 16th September, 2023 transfers, both Freetown West and East are now said to be well fortified in fighting crimes and enforcing law.
