{The visiting delegation from the Ivory Coast has recognized the institutional maturity of Rwanda National Police (RNP), following their visit of the Department of Traffic and Road Safety, yesterday.}<\/p>\n
The 11 member delegation was received by Commissioner of Police Sam Rumanzi, the Commissioner for traffic, who demonstrated the performance of traffic police, particularly on how it used ICT to perform its work in maintaining traffic safety.<\/p>\n
They also visited the Motor vehicle mechanical inspection centre, which checks the status of vehicles as one way of preventing accidents that might result from mechanical failures.<\/p>\n
The head of delegation and director of Studies, Research and Monitoring in the Ministry of Interior and Security in Ivory Coast, Fidel Yapi, said that the use of modern technology and high level of professionalism exhibited by RNP is a lesson to very many countries in the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cRwanda has invested heavily in modern technology to enhance traffic control \u2013 but this technology can be useless if professionalism is not high. Rwanda has been able to mix the two ingredients to maximum efficiency,\u201d Yapi said.<\/p>\n
The delegation was shown how CCTV cameras on the roads help to secure evidence against traffic offenders, as well as how police services are offered on mobile phones, including registering for driving permits.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe appreciate the visit of Ivory Coast delegation with which we have discussed several initiatives where we can share best practices for the betterment of both our institutions,\u201d ACP Rumanzi said.<\/p>\n
The delegation also visited the National Police College in Musanze district where they were also briefed on the courses offered and a Senior Command and Staff Course that benefits Police forces on the continent.<\/p>\n
