The government has announced plans to install metal detectors in schools, particularly those affected by gang activities, as part of a broader effort to combat crim
.Information Minister Melford Nicholas confirmed the initiative during Thursday’s Post-Cabinet briefing, emphasizing the government’s commitment to school safety.

Nicholas stressed that schools should remain safe learning environments, not places for gang influence.
