The Ghana Armed Forces has denied media reports that it has assigned men to protect President John Mahama’s brother, Ibrahim Mahama.
Media reports have suggested that soldiers have been detailed to guard the President’s brother after pictures of him in the company of soldiers while on a health walk emerged on social media.
But in a statement to clarify the matter, the Armed Forces Command condemned the act and assured that the necessary action is being taking to address the issue.
“The Military High command has taken a serious exception of the bad conduct in respect of soldiers who participated in a health walk and were alleged to have been providing close protection to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama.
“The Military High Command wish to state that it has not assigned any soldier as body guard to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama. The soldiers in question were assigned as part of the security detail at the flagstaff House,” the statement signed by Director Public Affairs Colonel Aggrey-Quashie noted.

This Ibrahim Mahama again. John Mahama call your brother to order or we will teach you a lesson in life. What kind of fuuuulishness is this. Total breakdown of discipline. Oh! Ghana what did we do wrong to decieve this punishment from this boy called John Mahama?
The only time some people feel powerful, and important is when they get political power. Nobody notice and recognize them when they are not in government. This Mahama guy has suddenly become a billionaire since the ndc came to power but he was a common businessman with his equipment hiring business just like hundreds of such businessmen around. He was a nobody to acquire airplanes and military bodyguards. I really pity this mahama ***barred word*** gang, only their aimless ndc sycophants value them, but some of us see them as nothing but common thiefs.
what is happening in ghana, is ibrahim a soldier officer, the army command must call ibrahim and charge him now, what is happening in gana, our demoncracy is geting out of hand, our law or must work or we all regret , from worried and concerned people of ghana
INCUMBENCY ABUSE
So in this case what do you prescribe? We want to see action now from GAF. Otherwise..............
Incompetence irresponsible government. Always abusing powers. I thought this ended after ndc 1.
The military should investigate and find out the person who re asigned these military personnels to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama. This is serious because Mr. Ibrahim Mahama is like every Ghanaian. The abuse of incumbancy must stop.
This is the level to which the Ghana Armed Forces have sunk. Total breakdown of discipline, signs of a failed state called Ghana.
in UK the prime minister has to step down for this. Ghana paaa nie
This statement from Military Command is not enough.According to the statement, I smell some rules been broken and I expect the Military command to punish those who break the rules.It is not Ok to just issued the statement and think that is all.
