Minister of Defence, Dominic Nitiwul, has urged Ghanaians to remain cautious and security conscious in order to combat terrorism front-on.
According to the Minister, the West African sub-leadership, the region’s particularly Ghana, is putting in place measures to protect its citizens from terrorist operations.
Dominic Nitiwul, addressing a Maritime Counter-terrorism Operational Readiness Exercise code-named ‘Exercise Sea Hawk’ held in Accra on Sunday by the Ghana Navy with assistance from other security agencies, stated that the globe is not in normal times.
“I want to appeal to Ghanaians to be security conscious to ensure that, they watch their surroundings, they take care of themselves, and they realize that we are not in normal times,” the Minister urged.
“Fifteen, years ago, we will not have been thinking and talking about terrorist attack activities but today (now) we are.
“We are determined as leaders of West Africa to rid West Africa of the difficulties that we are facing today, but until we do so, please join with the government, whether you are in Ghana, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Mali or anywhere join your government to fight this terrorist menace,” he stated.
