The Chairman of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Defence and Interior, Mr James Agalga, has cautioned against the politicisation of national security matters, stressing that such undermined the country’s collective safety.
He said the controversy surrounding the deployment of military personnel for VIP protection, a role which was traditionally assigned to the Ghana Police Service was not healthy.
He described the development as a deviation from the military’s core mandate and stressed the need to uphold institutional responsibilities without political interference.
Mr Agalga made these remarks when the Committee paid a working visit to the headquarters of the Ghana Immigration Service in Accra.
