The Defense and Interior Committee of Parliament has stated that Ghana’s security system is not under threat despite the attack on the Kwabenya police station over the weekend.
The culprits shot and killed a police officer on duty and freed seven suspects who were in police custody.
The attack has heightened fears of insecurity among Ghanaians with some security analysts suggesting the police is unable to protect the citizenry.
However, speaking to Starr News’ parliamentary correspondent Ibrahim Alhassan, chairman of the defense and interior committee of parliament Seth Kwame Acheampong said the Ghana Police Service is in control.
“It is a crime and it must be met with the requisite response. We must not allow anybody to usurp the authority of this country.
“Our security system has never failed us, we are living in a very comfortable ambience…it is a very resolute security system…you will have one or two incidents such as this but our security is tight.”
