President John Dramani Mahama has directed the security agencies to deploy across the country and arrest any person caught vandalising government property or attacking innocent people.
A statement signed by the Minister of Communications, Dr Edward Omane Boamah, said the directive followed attacks on supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and government installations by some supporters of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
President Mahama, according to the statement, was disappointed in the NPP leadership for failing to bring their supporters to order.
"President John Dramani Mahama expressed disappointment at the inability or unwillingness of the leadership of the New Patriotic Party to call its rampaging supporters to order, following series of attacks on innocent citizens and supporters of the ruling National Democratic Congress.
"Some supporters of the NPP have also attacked government installations across the country," the statement said.

The Ghana Police Service has failed Ghanaians totally. President Mahama saw it and blamed them for the attack that happened at Amugi Addo's residence in respect of the NDC health walk episode. Now with the post election issues. If people are misbehaving contrary to the law why don't you act according to the law but you are rather appealing this is appalling. The IGP must come out and apologise and thereafter prepare his handing over notes. To me he is the worst IGP we have had in living memory. It is the Police Service that can effect arrest and prosecute so why they appealing to political parties especially the NPP. The Police Service should act as an empowered institution.
Four years as president he didn't exercised his power to deal with all these goons. Now that he is already dead, he is trying to prove he is a man. Go and sleep quietly, we don't need you on NDC ticket in 2020. We need serious minded people not usain bolt sign makers. Does this win election, it only make people angry. Go away with your usain bolt garbage.
Mr Mahama, you should have crack the whip long time ago, and you would have still been in power. It's somewhat too late to prove you are in power. If you had done this throughout your tenure, you could have won the election. You allowed too much impunity among your ministers and tolerate a lot of these lawlessness and that has cost you the election. Had you dealt with stubborn government appointees as well as people such as wontumi and Ken Agyepong, we would have seen this nun sense going on. As for nana addo, he is going to show you how power should be used properly. I am convinced that all those supporters of his who are vandalizing properties, he will surely deal with them, especially when jj, Kojo tsikata and martin amidu supported him to win this election. He will definitely govern the nation the JJ way. That's what Ghanaians want. If he tolerate nun sense as Mahama did, he will also go 2020. Most Ghanaians are like the goats, the need some lashes at their behind for them to behave well.
Dzi wo fie asem!!

God has taken Ghana 🇬🇭 ones again through a successful change of government through the power of the thumb but not the barrel of the gun. Every well-meaning Ghanaian and those residence within our borders should justifiably welcome this as a good 😊 news. We have experienced this phenomenon since 1992, after every eight years. That is why those feeling disappointed should have hope that possibly their choice government could one ☝️ day come back to power, hence the need to overcome this loss and support the incoming government with prayers 🙏 and cooperation. For those of us who are visibly rejoicing and justifiably so should not forget that we have simply voted for humans but not angels 👼 so that we should be modest in our celebration 🎉, bearing in mind that Ghana 🇬🇭 has been this road before. It is my prayer that, the God of all the earth 🌏 will guide the outgoing President to continue to give his best and commission even more infrastructure developments in the coming days with joy and glee. I want to see him mingle with Ghanaians and laugh 😂 off the tension of the last few months. I pray for the President-Elect, that he will pause now and allow this victory and the expectations of Ghanaians and its implications to settle well in his heart before he starts to make very major decisions. I pray that Ghana 🇬🇭 shall become the beacon of Africa and the world 🌎. I pray for economic Prosperity for all Ghanaians. I pray for a Ghana that supports whoever is in power devoid of party colours. I pray for a Ghana 🇬🇭 where the word of God reigns and thrives. May God continue to bless our home land Ghana and make us great and strong 💪. Above all, Jesus is still on the throne. He hasn't moved since 1992, he has remained on his throne since Kwame Nkrumah's era. Put your trust in Him. Still👍 Saving Jesus Campaigns!
