your response to the secessionist group matter is poor; mahama to akufo-addo

Former President John Dramani Mahama has expressed concern over the ruling NPP government’s response to the secessionist group operating in the Volta Region.

The NDC flagbearer says President Akufo-Addo and his government’s response on the matter has been poor.

“It’s clear that this President hasn’t taken this matter seriously. I mean the whole government, the security services, it’s like they have a very lackadaisical attitude towards the issue of Western Togoland,” he said.

“Our Constitution makes it clear that we must protect the territorial integrity of Ghana; it’s one of the most serious things that the Constitution deals with. And that’s why when I was President, I did not sleep over that Maritime boundary issue,” he said.

“I think that the president must sit up and make sure that the national security apparatus is working properly and pick intelligence and act before those people do anything else,” he added.
