Security lighting provides a level of illumination to clearly identify persons or objects and creates a psychological deterrent to criminal activities in a particular area being protected.
To effectively enhance the smooth operations of Community Policing in rural Bong County, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the ‘Yarkpawolo Foundation for Development’ in Dr. Emmanuel K. Urey Yarkpawolo has donated over six pieces of sensitive security lights to the Community Watch Forum in Gbarnsue Sulonmea town, electoral district #4.
Making the presentation Thursday December 8, on behalf of the foundation, the district coordinator, Mr. Joshua T. Gbarnah told the gathering that the CEO of the foundation being a people centered leader and one who cares about the well-being of his people has decided to help buttress the efforts of the community police in the area.
Mr. Gbarnah believes that the donation will go a long way as it will help beef-off the efforts being applied by security officers in the area over the time with ordinary lights.
He however acknowledged that there are many challenges facing security officers across rural Liberia, but a contribution towards their movements to nearby bushes especially at night hours is of paramount concern.

“On behalf of the Yarkpawolo Foundation for Development and our own CEO in person of Dr. Emmanuel Urey Yarkpawolo who also is an aspirant of this district (#4 Bong) in the pending 2023 elections , we have seen the need and the many challenges you our community police goes through on a daily basis , we have come to appreciate you for the level of work you have been doing over the time in protecting our community and its people over the time .
For your committeemen to this job, you keep doing for our people, we want to present these lights; highly security wise as the matter of facts, that you may be able to use it for the protection of our community and our people.
Receiving the security lights on behalf of the Community Watch Forum, James Flomo Socro, Zota District CWF Commander thanked Dr. Emmanuel Urey Yarkpawolo and his foundation for the gesture.
He told bongtvonline.com in an interview that the donation was timely for the CWF.
In a cheerful tone James disclosed that; of the many challenges facing them in the security sector the issue of light has been of major factor, adding that the light will go a long way with them. “ I don’t even know how to thank the honorable man , because some time when a man beat on his wife on their farm and when we are sent there at night hours we find it difficult to get the perpetrator of the act, but with these lights, I tell you no lie it will help us in a long way. People who misbehave in our communities and run away at night will now have the Community Watch Forum to contend with,” he said
