In a significant show of support for local law enforcement, Kasho J. Holland Cole, Chairman of the Western Area Rural District Council (WARDC), has donated a KAMA 5kva diesel generator and 100 liters of diesel to the Waterloo Police Division.

The donation was handed over to Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) Joe Kamanda Bongay, the Local Unit Commander (LUC), to enhance the operational capabilities of the division. During the brief ceremony, Chairman Kasho praised the improvements in the security situation since CSP Bongay took office. "Under LUC Bongay’s leadership, the security of Waterloo has markedly improved. This generator and diesel are tokens of our appreciation and support, ensuring the station remains operational and well-lit, even during power outages," Chairman Kasho stated.

LUC Bongay expressed his gratitude to Chairman Kasho and the WARDC team for their generous contribution. "This gesture is deeply appreciated. It will undoubtedly enhance our ability to maintain peace and security in Waterloo and its surrounding areas. We are committed to continuing our hard work to ensure the safety of our community," said CSP Bongay.

This donation underscores WARDC’s commitment to supporting local institutions and enhancing community welfare. The new generator and diesel are expected to significantly aid the Waterloo Police Division in maintaining a secure and stable environment.

This initiative is part of a broader strategy by the council to provide essential resources and support to various sectors within the district, reinforcing their dedication to community development and safety.
