General News of Monday, 20 May 2019Source: Graphic.com.ghChurches must develop security policies — ExpertDr Franklin Kwesi Biney speaking at the church serviceThe Director of the Royal Kingdom Security Network Limited, a private security firm, Dr Franklin Kwesi Biney, has underscored the need for all churches to develop comprehensive security policies and safety plans to guide their operations, in the wake of the terrorism threat alert on the country. According to him, irrespective of the alert, security had been one of the least prioritised areas of the churches because "I have engaged with many churches on security matters and none of them has had any such policy to champion its safety”. Dr Biney gave the advice when he delivered a talk on security at the Calvary Methodist Church at Adabraka in Accra yesterday. Last week, the security agencies, including the National Security, met with the leadership of the Christian community to discuss how to enhance security in the various churches in reaction to the threat. He, therefore, urged all churches to beef up their internal security by offering their security officers, ushers and other representatives professional training in security.
