Police vehicles

Northern Command covers the provinces of Morobe, Eastern Highlands and Madang.

On friday morning, police personnel from Eastern Highlands and Madang joined their counterparts in Lae to witness the first delivery of the K26 million government-funded contract with Ela Motors, which was executed in December 2023.

The GST-free contract was for the procurement of 130 Toyota Land Cruisers for police throughout the country.

Acting ACP NCD/Central Command, Peter Guinness said this during the distribution of fleet keys to the Six-mile and Seven-Mile Police stations in Port Moresby.

Guinness said it is not easy to secure vehicles, especially for the police department.

“It has been a long-coming issue where we always ask for vehicles and the distribution of these vehicles comes as a relief to all our members,” he said.
