The Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC) has said that government’s responses on the Joy News documentary on the alleged militia group at the Osu Castle is not impressive.
“The responses have not so much impressed me. Whether it was a security company or not, a security zone or not, I will not allow my house or my office or my room to be taken over by somebody to run his own personal business for over two months, they are alleging, August to October, and that National Security will not be able to get them.”
“Also there was inconsistency in the fact that they [government] say they [group] were driven away in October but in December, there was also a programme there, so all these things tell us that we are not secure. I will ask people in government especially National Security, to be very vigilant and be on top of things,” Rev Frimpong Manso, President of the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council said.
Wading into the debate after the Joy News documentary that alleged the existence of a pro-New Patriotic Party (NPP) militia group that had operated at the Osu Castle, the Pentecostal Council said government’s reaction to the documentary has not been impressive.
Adding he said, “the responses too were not the best to me. Saying that at least it has open our eyes, the state apparatus, the state machinery, the government should be up and doing in terms of these things. Because I have said that even though they may not be a vigilante group or whatever.., we can still not be justified to have those people there. And I believe that it should be investigated and those people involved should be punished to deter others from doing it,” Rev Frimpong Manso added.
