In a concerted effort to enhance professionalism and service delivery within the Directorate of Road Safety and Traffic Management, the Inspector General of Police Mr. William Fayia Sellu delivered a firm message to Divisional Traffic Officers (DTOs) and their personnel on Saturday, August 17, 2024. The meeting took place at the Senior Police Officers’ Mess at Kingtom, Western Area.
IGP Sellu emphasized the importance of presenting a professional image, stating, “When you are neatly dressed in uniform while carrying out your traffic duties, it instills confidence in your ability to perform your responsibilities efficiently and professionally.” He urged officers to maintain high standards in their appearance and conduct.
The Inspector General elaborated on his leadership philosophy, asserting that he leads by example to ensure effective and professional service delivery, noting that the police represent state authority. He cautioned officers to control their behavior, particularly warning against the use of mobile phones and taking pictures for social media while on duty. “We need to improve our conduct, especially in our interactions with the public. Changes in our behavior can help shift the narrative surrounding our work,” he stated.
Mr. Sellu also outlined the ongoing transformation of the Sierra Leone Police from a force to a service, emphasizing the need for officers to build their capacities and professional skills. He encouraged personnel to address minor offences with caution and issue warnings while taking decisive action against more serious violations. Additionally, he urged Divisional Traffic Officers to conduct regular highway patrols on motorcycles to facilitate the free flow of traffic.
Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Abdul Moijueh, Director of the Road Safety and Traffic Management, expressed gratitude to IGP Sellu for his guidance. He assured the Inspector General that under his leadership, allegations of corruption would be a thing of the past, pledging to disseminate this message to Divisional Traffic Officers throughout the provinces to ensure accountability and effective service delivery.
