Gov’t Using Military Wrongly - James Agalga Says It's An 'Abuse' On Their Operations

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa North, James Agalga is certainly appalled by government’s decision to deploy heavy military to the Volta Region ahead of the voters' registration.

He noted that the move is “disturbing” and an attempt to terrify indigenes from taking part in the registration exercise.

“Why are they [government] targeting only Ketu? That is my worry. This government is using the military wrongly, it’s an abuse on their operations,” The minority spokesperson on Interior in parliament said in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.

The deployment of the soldiers in the Volta region particularly, has created a storm on social media with many Ghanaians divided over the issue.

Supporters of the ruling NPP have justified the move while opposition members push back with voter suppression claims.
