The Presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, says President Akufo- Addo has lost the war against armed robbery in the country.
Addressing NDC supporters at Gomoa Dawurampong in the Gomoa West constituency on Wednesday, the first day of his five-day campaign tour of the Central Region, Mr. Mahama paid a tribute to the deceased Member of Parliament for Mfantseman who was a victim of the state of insecurity in the country as he was reportedly gunned down by armed robbers last week.
He said even though there is no curfew in most parts of the country, citizens are now afraid to go out at the night for fear of being attacked by robbers.
"There is insecurity in this country and President Akufo-Addo has lost the war against armed robbery," Mr. Mahama noted.
The NDC’s presidential candidate said the next government of his party will not arm vigilante groups but rather will focus on resourcing the police and military to enable them to discharge their duties.
"If I am President, I am not going to give weapons to vigilantes, invincible forces, and Delta forces to kill ordinary Ghanaians. I will give weapons to the police and the army to fight armed robbers," he assured.
Mr. Mahama said Ghana was noted as one of the safest countries in the West Africa subregion but that is no longer the case under the Akufo-Addo regime.
He said the next NDC government will work hard to ensure the safety of all Ghanaians and urged the electorates to vote for him and NDC parliamentary candidates.

Will you keep quiet there!! Look at him trying to manufacture cover-up to outsmart Ghanaians. You yourself know that both MP 1 and MP 2 were not killed by real armed robbers and you have gone there to shed crocodile tears. What are the full contents of the iceberg tip that showed in the leaked tape. You keep on pretending, your pretense will make you forget your name.
You bought a gun to defend yourself as a president because of vast insecurity and now you say what? Describe him.
JB Danquah who was also an MP died mysteriously under your watch, Quansah’s own is even better because this things happen during robbery, how about someone, an MP who was killed in his own house, happy hear you saying people are afraid to go out under Akuffo Addo, but in your case we were so scared to sleep in our houses, let alone come outside . Is only dumbbs who doesn’t know who you’re. We all witnessed your regime, you nation wrecker, day light robbery of state purse, where are the guinea fowls that flew to Baurkina .
