Security expert Richard Kumadoe has sounded the alarm on the recent attacks on public institutions by supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). In a stark warning, Kumadoe emphasized that the only way to put an end to these acts of violence is to arrest and prosecute the perpetrators. This call to action comes as Ghana struggles to maintain peace and stability, particularly during times of government transition .
Kumadoe's concerns are rooted in the recurring nature of these incidents, which seem to plague the country whenever there is a change in government. He stressed that it is imperative for the police service and other security agencies to step up their efforts and ensure that suspects are brought to justice. This, he believes, is crucial in maintaining law and order and preventing further escalations.
The security expert also highlighted the importance of allowing the President to focus on addressing the pressing issue of power outages, rather than being distracted by party-related violence. "The President has a mandate to save Ghana from 'dumsor' in the next 5 hours, so how can he be expected to waste his time dealing with this matter? It is the work of the police service," Kumadoe stated.
Kumadoe's sentiments echo the concerns of many Ghanaians, who are calling for swift justice to prevent further violence. The Ghana Police Service has launched an intelligence-led operation to capture the perpetrators, but there has been public outcry over the delay in making arrests.
In light of these developments, it is clear that the NDC must take steps to rein in its supporters and prevent further attacks on public institutions. The party has already issued a statement urging its supporters not to attack any state institutions .
As Ghana navigates this critical period, it is essential that all stakeholders work together to maintain peace and stability. The arrest and prosecution of perpetrators, as advocated by Kumadoe, is a crucial step in this direction.
