Lilongwe, Malawi – In a gesture aimed at boosting police operations during the busy festive season, Premier Bet has donated K1 million to Lilongwe Police Station to help procure fuel. The betting company also provided 150 reflector jackets to enhance the visibility and safety of officers on duty.

Speaking during the handover ceremony, Daniel Fatch, Retail Manager for Premier Bet, highlighted the challenges police face during the festive period. “Police are often overwhelmed during this time of the year, and we felt it was important to assist. When we were approached, we decided to support them with funds for fuel and reflector jackets, knowing that their workload will significantly increase,” he said.

The donation was received by Lilongwe Police Station Officer Elisha Bophani, who expressed profound gratitude on behalf of the station. “We are so grateful to Premier Bet for this timely donation. As you know, we are heading into the festive season when mobility and visibility are crucial for effective policing. The fuel and reflectors will greatly enhance our operations,” Bophani stated.

The festive season is traditionally a time of heightened police activity due to increased traffic, public events, and potential criminal activity. The donation from Premier Bet is expected to improve the station’s capacity to respond to emergencies and maintain order.

Premier Bet’s contribution is part of its ongoing corporate social responsibility efforts aimed at supporting essential public services. The company hopes its donation will encourage other organizations to extend similar support to the police and other institutions working to ensure public safety.

With the festive season fast approaching, the donation is a welcome boost to Lilongwe Police’s preparedness and ability to serve the community effectively.
