STATEMENT ON GENERAL SECURITY SITUATION AT LUSAKA’S AGRICULTURAL SHOW GROUNDS
I wish to assure members of the public that we have deployed enough Police Officers to provide security throughout the period of the Agricultural and Commercial Show. Officers have been positioned to man all the gates, Car Parks, Bus stops near the Show Grounds and are also conducting general patrols within and around the premises.
Police will provide security during day and night time to ensure that show goers and exhibitors’ properties are safeguarded. All exhibitors both local and foreign should therefore conduct their business without any fear as police working in collaboration with the Show Society have stepped up security measures.
I wish to inform the general public that from the time the gates were opened to the public to-date, no serious incidence has been recorded and people are going about their business normally.
My advice to all show goers is that they should take care of their personal effects and those with motor vehicles should ensure that they appropriately secure them and avoid exposing items that may attract the attention of criminals.
Further, members of the public are called upon to report any suspicious looking person to the nearest police officer or post.
We wish everyone a crime free Agricultural and Commercial Show.
