Election: (CSD-Ghana) Backs The NDC’s “Enough is Enough” Protest In Demand For A Credible Voters’Register

Image
The CSD-Ghana believes strongly that the foundation of any free and fair election is a credible register and as such, any effort towards having a credible Voters’ Register must be supported by all democracy lovers. The Electoral Commission has admitted to many errors in the Electoral Roll, as pointed out by the NDC, but has failed to allow for an independent forensic audit into the same. The EC, for example, has admitted that there were illegal vote transfers in Sagnerigu, Pusiga and Tamale South by an Electoral Commission Official in Tamale South. According to the EC, these illegal transfers went through because there was no “liveness check” mechanism in place to prevent such situations.  The NDC says the situation is widespread so there must be an audit. This is a fair and reasonable call to make, but the EC has remained intransigent. CSD-Ghana stands ready to fully participate in this protest and asks other democracy lovers to join us to mount enough pressure on the Electoral Commis

Ablekuma Billion Van Robbery: Amanda Amoah, Wife Of The Unlived Policeman Now A Police Officer

Published from Blogger Prime Android App

The wife of the police officer who was killed in the Ablekuma Bullion Van Robbery has graduated from the Ghana Police Training School in Accra.

Amanda Amoah, the grieving wife of Callistus Amoah, the young police officer who was killed during a bullion van robbery in Ablekuma graduated from Ghana Police Training School on Friday, 3rd May 2024.

Amanda Amoah, a nurse by profession, celebrated this achievement as she graduated from the Ghana Police Training School.

On Thursday, June 22, 2023, the peace of Ablekuma, a suburb of Accra, was shattered when armed men attacked a bullion van. The van, accompanied by Amanda’s husband providing escort, fell victim to the ambush. The officer confronted the assailants but tragically got shot severally

The Ghana Police Service, by IGP Akufo Dampare, immediately initiated a search for the four armed men responsible for this crime. Despite the loss of one of their own, the police force vowed to pursue justice relentlessly. They extended heartfelt condolences to Amanda and her family, promising unwavering support during this difficult time.

Consequently, the suspects, who were four in number were arrested. The Ghana Police Service made this announcement on Sunday, July 16, 2023, revealing that one of the suspects was arrested the day prior, on Saturday, July 15, 2023.

In a statement, the police assured the public that more information regarding the case would be provided in due course.

The swift collaboration between the Ghana Police Service and Togo Interpol played a crucial role in the capture of the third suspect, Blessing Njoma.

The incident unfolded when the bullion van paused at a fuel station, presumably for refuelling. Looking at the vulnerable moment, the robbers seized the opportunity to strike. While it remains unclear whether the assailants made off with any money, footage circulating on social media showed that the robbers ran away after shooting the police officer.

Following this tragic incident, several concerns were raised regarding the security protocols surrounding the transportation of money by financial institutions.
The Ghana Police Service has emphasised the need for massive protection for its personnel and advocated for the use of fortified bullion vans for cash transit.

At the pre-burial of the late soldier, his widow, who is now a police officer, read out her tribute, where she almost collapsed in front of the IGP George Akuffo Dampare.

Reading her tribute, she highlighted some good memories they shared before his sudden demise.
