DRUG BARONS MUST BE EXPOSED-Nana Addo.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo –Addo has plead to the public to effectively partner or work with the security agencies to help expose drug barons and other people who engage in illegal activities.

According to the President, illegal activities have become common in the country which is not the best, suggesting that the partnership between the public and the security agencies is the surest way  to deal with the menace.

“There are a lot of illegal activities going on in our communities including the sale of small arms, dealing in hard drugs, armed robbery and prostitution, just to mention a few of the illegal acts.
“The security agencies have some time now been playing their part of putting adequate measures and operations in place to provide security everywhere.
However, they cannot do their job better if we do not  co-operate and support them.”

This was contained in a speech read on behalf of Nana Addo by the Kumasi Mayor, Osei Assibey Antwi on Monday in Kumasi during a prayer session to mark this year’s Eid-ul Fitr celebration by the Ahamadiyaa Muslim mission.

Commenting on the programme ’s theme ‘Peace and Discipline’, the President stated that it is important that citizenry adopt peace in their lifestyles so as to accelerate national growth.

He also entreated Muslims and the people living in the Zongo areas to take advantage of the numerous interventions by the New Patriotic Party to better their lives, especially the Zongo Development fund.

He also rebuked parents and guardians to inculcate truthfulness in their children so they would grow to become patriotic citizens, who would genuinely champion Ghana’s growth when they assume leadership positions in the future.
