The Lives Of All Ghanaians Matter - The Heads Of Ghana's Security Agencies Must Therefore Protect Them

In a metaphorical sense, tolerance was recently murdered, in cold blood, at Ejura.  The question is: Was the tragedy at Ejura avoidable? Was it inevitable? Did it occur, as some critics posit, because of the consistent-reluctance of the upper echelons of our nation's security agencies, to stand up to the few but powerful  hardliner-extremists, who dominate today's ruling party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and have done so, from the very day it won power, in 2017? What happened at Ejura is intolerable and unacceptable - and all those who whose egregious lack of judgement, caused it, must be prosecuted, after investigations.

That egregious failure, by the top brass of our nation's security agencies, over the years since the NPP came to power, in January 2017, to demand a halt to the NPP's hardliner-extremists' treasonable insistence, on packing our national security apparatus with ill-disciplined myrmidon-thugs, from the privately-owned pro-NPP militias, the Delta Force and Invincible Forces, and kitting them out in police, and military uniforms, for specific operations,  when it suits the ends they seek, has now given the world the rather  unfortunate impression, that there is a woeful lack of professionalism, in our security agencies.

Yet, nothing could be further from the truth. In the main, the hardworking career professionals,  in the security agencies of our country, are well-trained and truly world-class. It is not for nothing, dear reader, that they have gained a global reputation, for being one of the world's  best ever peacekeeping forces, which a grateful  United Nations Organisation, has always known,  it can rely on,  for its global peacekeeping operations, in the world's trouble spots.

The profession of arms is a noble one - for it is based on the willingness of brave men and women, to sacrifice their lives,  for their nation, whenever it is imperilled, and they are called upon to fight to save it from annihilation. That is why no one in this country must be allowed to prostitute the collective-honour of Ghana's security agencies. No. No. No. 

For the sake of our beloved Mother Ghana, the heads of all our nation's security agencies, must now step up to the plate, so to speak - and demand that all the myrmidon-thug-employees, of the privately-owned pro-NPP militias, the Delta Force and Invincible Forces, be purged from Ghana's national security apparatus, forthwith. Their barbarism, callous-actions, and criminal-inactions, could, one fine day, land  the top hierarchy of our security agencies, in the dock, at the International Criminal Court (ICC), at The Hague.  Enough is enough. Ghanaian democracy  matters - as do the lives of all its law-abiding citizens: which is why the heads of Ghana's security agencies must protect them at all material times.
