Don’t Politicize Security Matters – Former Deputy Defence Minister Advises

With the recent spate of robbery in Ghana especially Accra, many Ghanaians have raised concerns as to whether our security is intact or porous.

Another school of thought has called on the government to beef up the security services and arm them heavily as we combat the recent robbery cases.

A former Deputy Defense Minister, Major Rtd. Derrick Oduro has said Ghanaians have every reason to fear for their lives but however not panic because security in the nation is still intact.

Speaking to Peace FM’s reporter, Pious Baidoo Banson, he advised against the politicization of security issues.

He added that, comparing crime cases in Ghana to some African countries, Ghana is safer.

Major Rtd. Derrick Oduro also urged the public to support the security agencies by providing them with necessary information on criminals.
