Owula Mangortey writes from afar to 2024 Presidential Candidates John Mahama and Mahamudu Bawumia….

The Ghana Military is the thin thread that holds our PANT from falling off to expose our fragile national stability and security!

As we prepare for the December 7 election, every effort must be made to ensure that the Ghana Military continues to focus on its core mandate of safeguarding the sovereignty and terroritorial integrity of the nation.

Your Excellencies the leading Presidential Candidates, I wish to bring to your attention that my reliable sources at the Jubilee House speak alarmingly of a spill of bad blood between the new Chief of Army Staff and the new Chief of Defence Staff, with grave consequences for our national security and stability.

Worst is the alarming whisper from my sources that the top echelon of the National Security Ministry can not agree on the proper coordination and integration of plans and policies for our national stability and security.

From my base in Bawku, I respectfully call on Presidential Candidates John Mahama and Mahamudu Bawumia to scream loudly to alert President Akufo-Addo – the Commander-In-Chief and Chairman of the National Security Council – to stamp his authority to stop what appears to be the childish nonsense among the leadership of the Ghana Armed Forces and the National Security Secretariat. Otherwise…

A word to the wise is in the North.

I shall return!
