There are Hezbollah fighters and other Islamist fundamentalist terrorist groups in Ghana, motivational Speaker Charles Sam has warned. �There are Hezbollahs in this country and in West Africa and I can name different types of people but not every Hezbollah is a fighter�, Mr. Sam said on Friday. According to him, �some of them could be ex-fighters, you never know, and Iran�s investments in a lot of African countries are now going through Hezbollah elements�. He therefore says the Government of Ghana must be extra vigilante and have a very strong intelligence gathering system to profile and monitor the activities of terrorist elements in the West African country. Mr. Sam gave the warning on his programme �One Nation� on the XYZ Breakfast Sow on Friday September 27, 2013. His warning comes on the heels of terrorist group, al-Shabab�s recent massacre of non-Muslims at the Westgate mall in Nairobi Kenya. Charles Sam says Ghana�s security agencies must be on the alert, especially because Ghana has contributed troops to quell the insurrection in Mali, thus putting the country in harm�s way.
