Hela Provincial Administrator, William Bando, said since the deployment of the security forces in Hela, the election process has been progressive with less violence.
Bando said despite public perception, Hela is still a young and developing province with a lot of potential.
However, he said security is still a concern, considering the recent Hela call-out.
Bando will be having a word with the heads of the security forces to discuss the possibilities of looking into suspected areas where raids can be conducted to secure illegal weapons in the province.
