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 IS PURE FAMILY AND FRIENDS GOVERNMENT.
Even if two military men were involved,it means the security at the Flagstaff House was breached. the military i was told growing up, was the citadel for discipline. it appears not.
Those soldiers who participated in the health work should be investigated as the kalyppo soldier if only the commander is not hidden the truth.
This is what happens when you have block heads at the helm of affairs in the country.
THEY ARE NOT UNTOUCHABLE. TAKE THEM AWAY AND PUNISH THE COMMANDER WHO DEPLOYED THEM WITHOUT PROPER AUTHORISATION. THAT'S ALL.
Is Papa J. Rewlings still alive and kicking in our beloved Ghana and seeing all these going on? Lord help us for our nation is in REAL trouble.
Punish the officers bcos u punish the officer who posted kalypo picture
So the president is running friends and family government? Why do I even ask? The man is corrupt to the bone!
government of family and friends. Create, loot and share. These are names variously given to John Mahama. And day in day out, he illustrates these names. This is just one instance. Giving castle security detail to his brother. Mahama is so arrogant, greedy and corrupt. Dec 7th , away bus.
This family is VERY CORRUPT to the core. Let Ghanainas remove them from power with their thumb, come Dec 07, 2016. CHANGE IS COMING!
