Security Analyst, Adib Sani has expressed displeasure in Ghana’s approach in handling security issues in the country.
Speaking to Samuel Eshun on the Happy Morning Show the government has appointed a lot of people, some of which is to reward the boys yet crime is going up. He says the approach the country uses in handling crime isn’t right.
“The government has appointed security ministers and a lot of people; some of the portfolios which are duplication and some of which are to reward the boys, all to tackle security but still crime is going up. So, that should tell us that the approach we use is not the right approach because if it were, the over 500 people killed in Ghana on annual basis out of crime will just have been down. If it were a wise approach, we wouldn’t have had violent crimes going up that the US department of state from 2019 to late 2020 had to give advisory warning to their citizens in Ghana. If it were the right approach, we wouldn’t have had armed robbers who are so brazen to the extent that they go after police stations and kill policemen in broad daylight”.
He encouraged the government to use a ”multidimensional” approach in handling crime with a focus on output and outcomes.
