Samuel George Nartey, Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, has observed that there is a growing sense of insecurity in Ghana at the moment.
This lack of safety, he said, had put fear in Ghanaians and foreign nationals, a situation that led to cancellation of the trip to Ghana by American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jnr, who was billed to be in Ghana yesterday, June 16.
In a post on his Facebook page on Saturday June 17, the lawmaker said: “There is a growing sense of insecurity in the country today. Robberies, contract killings, and unexplained deaths litter the news. It is so frightening we are becoming scared of our own shadows.
“This fact is amply evidenced by the cancellation of the visit of The Money Man Floyd Mayweather. The Money Team would as part of standard protocols engage the US Embassy in Ghana on the security situation in town. It is safe to conclude that the assessment by the Embassy was one of insecurity, prompting the cancellation.
“We need to pray for Ghana. I am reminded of the words of a senior man of God: ‘There is a sinister force on the prowl in our nation. It is a force of impunity. It is a force of treachery. It is a force of evil. To keep silent in such a situation is to allow evil to triumph.’"
Meanwhile Mayweather has disclosed his visit to Ghana and Nigeria will come off in autumn.
“Motherland Africa, Nigeria & Ghana, my Undefeated Africa Tour has been pushed to the fall @RnBAllStarsEnt @ONEbrentTMT 4 more event info.”

What has this got to do with NDC.Why are you people not in Ghana?People dying left and right.Armed police on duty are being killed and you say we are safe.You people are rather ***barred word*** and hypocrites.If these death's had happened under Mahama what would you have said?You people think the US embassy is a joker as what they are doing in the flagstaff house,fighting for positions without thinking about the ordinary Ghanaian.SHAME.
I HAD A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THIS YOUNG MAN UNTIL NOW..... I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN HIM...HE WAS SEEN TO BE MORE THAN THIS CHILDISHNESS..
so Ghana do you mean anything from NDC is not true? Stop the insult and think about what is on the ground. Fact finding is important.
eiiiiii so now an MP sef akoa wei JIMII noaaaa?.......hahahahahahahahahahaha....for Christ sake someone shld tell this plotoo to speak and behave as an honourable not a footsoldier....aahhhhba
Is the speaker a mental patient or an ACTUAL MP? I cannot believe a rational person can say this and pretend NOT to be mentally challenged.
Is stuuupidddity a qualification becoming MP in Ghana? Why do we advertise to the world at large that we choose eddiotts and bufffooons to make laws for our country?
Chief your speculation i dont buy it at all : There are more violence in USA than you can think of in Ghana.So what is point. So he cancelled his trip to Where Syria. besides what is his mission here to support the 1 Dam 1 visit policy or what. He should go to Haiti with his money team.
These childish nonsenseee must stop. NDC is already desperate in opposition just after 6 months. making such comments to inflate fear and panic cannot bring you back to power. How many people were not killed in your immediate past 8 years? An what pro-ponderous lies did you not peddle against the now president and to favour you. yet ghanaians handed you humiliating and excruciating and defeat. Please learn and be wise. If the Embassy advised Mayweather against coming to Ghana because of insecurity while they feel secured enough to be here, this the the most childish talk I have heard from you yet. The ambassador and all the consulate staff should pack their things and leave to demonstrate their insecurity. I wonder what would have happened in Ghana; i wonder where ghana would have been by now, if the NDC had succeeded in imposing themselves on us again in the past elections. Praise God they are no more and how i pray they shall never again be. Amen
These people should learn from their past mistakes and get a better message for Ghanaians in the next elections if they are really serious to come back to power. We Ghanaian do not see any insecurity in the country so get a better message for you communication directorate and stop the lies. In your era policemen on duty were shot and killed several times, arm robbery was rampant, chiefs were killed and nobody complained about insecurity. On top of this you manage to bring terrorists into the country.
NDC, NDC, NDC, HAS TRAINED ITS MEMBERS TO LIE. LIARS LIARS LIARS. OH NDC. YOU ARE STILL NOT SURE THAT YOU LOST THE 2016 ELECTION. SO YOU THINK LIES CAN BRING YOU BACK TO POWER. EVEN MPs LACK INTEGRITY. I AM SO SAD FOR THIS COUNTRY. THESE ARE LAW MAKERS FOR GHANA. GOD HELP US TO IDENTIFY THESE LIARS. Sam George, is he a Ghanaian? SHAME ON YOU.
