Be security conscious, Ghanaians advised

Kadjebi (O/R), May 25, GNA – Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Mr Gyan-Mante Frempong, the Kadjebi District Police Commander, has advised Ghanaians, especially those living along border lines, to be security conscious to reduce their vulnerability to terrorist attacks.

He said terrorists attack on the northern part of the Republic of Togo should be enough signal for Ghanaians that the act is close.

He asked them not to touch suspicious items at lorry parks, markets, places of worship, schools and even on the streets as explosive materials could be planted in them.

Mr Frempong, who was represented by Detective Sergeant Bismark Walker Tetteh, the District CID Officer, made the statement at a workshop at Kadjebi, organised by ActionAid for Community-Based Anti-Violent Team (COMBAT) members.

He asked the public to check the background of visitors they received thoroughly as most terrorists camouflaged themselves as visitors and carried out their activities unaware.

It is impossible to identify a terrorist by appearance, nationality and language.

The Police Commander, thus, called on the participants to “run if there is a safe route if not hide and call the service hotline numbers 191 and 18555 for help when attacked.”

The COMBAT is a grassroots community structure in fighting violence against women and girls.

It complements the work of the police, who were constrained by numbers and logistics, a limitation in their enforcement of the law.
