The Ghana Armed Forces has issued a statement following a viral video involving a military personnel and some other persons engaged in car snatching activity.
GAF in it’s statement stated categorically that the man who was seen in military uniform is not a soldier.
It bemoaned the impersonation of soldiers by civilians.
GAF said it was prepared to collaborate with the appropriate authorities to bring such persons to book.
“We wish to state categorically that the suspect is not a soldier of the Ghana Armed Forces. The Armed Forces is worried about the rising spate of impersonation by civilians, either wearing military uniforms or posting of fake pictures of themselves as military officers to defraud unsuspecting Ghanaians. The unauthorised sale of military uniforms and military pattern gadgets by some vendors contributes to this state of affairs and is inimical to national security.
The Ghana Armed Forces is ready to cooperate with the Police to unravel the source of the military uniform in this particular incident and to stop the unauthorised sale of military uniforms across the country. Ghanaians should be confident to provide information to the security agencies in order to nib this trend in the bud.”
