The Northern Territories, which were made of kingdoms, that came under the British Colonial Government on account of the Northern Territories Ordinance of 1901.

Violent crime, such as street mugging, is more frequent in urban areas as compared to their surrounding suburbs. These crimes are also more prevalent at night and in isolated locations.
The Upper East Regional Police Command says it has extended an invitation to tomato traders and commercial drivers plying the Bolgatanga-Paga highway to help find ways of dealing with the spate of armed robbery attacks on that stretch of the road.
However, before that meeting is held, the police command says it has put in place some measures to curb robberies on the road.
One of the measures is the positioning of personnel at Karemenga, which is between the North East and the Upper East Regions so that anytime tomato traders and drivers approach the area they are able to draw the attention of police for security to be provided.
