Army Chief Lt. Col. Jacob Codjoe issues stern warning to potential election troublemakers:

Lt. Col Jacob Codjoe, Commanding Officer of Achiase Jungle Warfare Training School, has issued a strong warning to voters in the Akyemansa block against violence or troublemaking in the upcoming December 7 election. He emphasized the importance of maintaining peace, urging residents to be law-abiding and warning that the military will not hesitate to take action against troublemakers .

Speaking after a peace walk organized by the Salvation Army Church, Lt. Col Codjoe cautioned that his men are ready to "beat troublemakers mercilessly" if necessary. He encouraged voters to cast their ballots and return home peacefully, without delay. His message was clear: "When you go to the polling station, just cast your vote and go home. Go and sleep. When it's 5 p.m., come back, and they will tell you where to stand. They will count the votes for you. If you win, clap and go home."

Lt. Col Codjoe's motivation for this warning stems from his desire to protect Ghana's peace and stability. He emphasized that Ghanaians have a duty to protect the peace they enjoy, and that disturbing it would have severe consequences. The Territorial Commander of the Salvation Army Church-Ghana, Col. Seth Agyei Appeateng, also encouraged Ghanaians to maintain peace and avoid anything that could jeopardize the country's stability.

It's reassuring to see security personnel and community leaders promoting peace and unity ahead of the election. Ghana has a history of peaceful elections, and it's crucial to maintain this stability. Would you like to know more about Ghana's election process or the role of the military in maintaining peace?
