To support the digitization of the Ghana Police Service and the fight against crime, Vice President Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia has presented over $2 million worth of mobile identification devices and a Mobile Device Management System to the Ghana Police Service.
They were donated by the Margins Group, an indigenous Ghanaian Identity Systems Company.
These mobile devices and systems will capture the unique biometric and biographic information of individuals, verify vehicle registration, drivers license, road worthiness certificate and insurance, and match the data against other databases including the National Identification Authority’s database.
The devices will give police officers real- time access to data on individuals, vehicles, criminal histories etc. and therefore help in the fight against crime.
