The citizens' awareness campaign aimed at protecting Ghana against terrorist attacks, sensitised members of the public to collaborate with traditional security providers and report activities of suspicious characters to them to guarantee the security of all.

Mr Kester Osei, a member of the sensitisation team, addressing congregants of the Global Evangelical Church, Amenuveve Parish and Salvation Army Church both at Woe encouraged everyone to play their roles in protecting the nation's peace by taking the campaign serious.

He asked the congregants to be vigilant and conscious of their security and closely monitor unusual activities of strangers especially, to enable them to provide accurate and timely information where necessary, to make it easy for the Ghana Police and sister security agencies to arrest such criminals, preventing them from causing harm within their communities.

Mr Osei said reports could be made to community leaders, faith-based leaders, state security agencies or by dialing the toll-free number 999 noting "if you see something, you must say something," while advising against prank calls.

He also appealed to the electorates to go home and wait for the outcome of the elections after exercising their franchise on December 7, saying, "whatever the outcome, it would be a win for Ghana and so nobody should engage in any activities that could harm the prevailing peace in the country".

The team also gave out flyers to the congregants to paste in their homes to educate the larger public on the non- political campaign.

At the Salvation Army Church, members asked questions for clarity on how they could contribute to the success of the campaign to keep activities of violent extremists and terrorists away from their communities.

In an interview with Ghana News Agency, Mr Osei explained that the sensitisation was being done across the country with Volta being the 12th region the team was visiting, to engage schools, traditional leaders, and political leaders among others to ensure everybody got the message on security "which is a shared responsibility".

"We are not in normal times, looking at the deteriorating security situation in the sub-region. This campaign is thus a proactive measure by the government to involve citizens in supporting state security. Government is doing its bit. Citizens must also complement efforts of government".

The Ministry of National Security in May 2022 launched the "See Something, Say Something," campaign to encourage the citizenry to play active roles in protecting the country against the terrorism threat as being witnessed in the sub- region.
