As we all witness in his recents activities, the newly appointed Inspector General Of Police (IGP) George Akuffo Dampare, who was recently appointed by the NPP government led by President Akufo-Addo , is pushing the level of policing in Ghana to another level, by putting the safety of the general public first.
According to a statement released by the Police Administration, the act is a violation of law, (under section 209 of the criminal offences act 1960 act 29 of the Constitution.)
Therefore the Ghana Police Service had taken a serious stance against the stance of the young man seen in the video.
Read the Police statement below.
” The Police have intercepted a video in which a young man is seen firing several shots of a firearm suspected to be AK 47 at ANC Mall, East Legon, last night, December 31, 2021, purportedly to welcome the new year”.
