Number of police stations and posts by Sub County

The number of police stations and posts is 21 while Administration Police lines are 27. From table 13, it can be seen that crime-prone areas, such as Endo, Sambirir and Arror have a higher number of police and administration police posts, as compared to other areas of the county. More security personnel are needed in crime-prone areas indeed.
