Maintenance of law and order is a pre-requisite for the effective development of every society.  Ahafo Ano South District has a district Police Headquarters with four Police Stations at Mankranso, Wioso, Pokukrom, and Mpasaso for the maintenance of law and order in the district.  These Police stations are beset with a number of problems among them are:
I.    Inadequate personnel
II.    Inadequate logistics e.g. vehicle and stationery
III.    Inadequate accommodation

The district Assembly over the years has made strenuous efforts to support the Police Service.  So far, the district has renovated existing residential accommodation and the charge office of the Mankranso Police Station.  Work on the accommodation blocks for Pokukrom, Wioso and Mpasaso Police Stations have been completed. It is important to mention that the Police Service in the District would be strengthened during the planned period to provide maximum security for the district.
