GAF Denies Civil Pickup Truck Conveyed Ammunition From 5 Battalion of Infantry Magazine
The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has discredited social media reports that a civil pick-up truck was used to convey boxes containing ammunition from the 5 Battalion of Infantry magazine.
The said ammunitions were reportedly conveyed to an unknown place.
However, the Forces in a press statement, denied the claims.
“GAF wishes to assure the public that the information on the said audio is false and should be treated with the contempt it deserves.
“The vehicle that entered the Magazine premises was there to deliver a newly acquired live cow to be quarantined, before being relocated to the kraal which is adjacent to the Magazine.”
On that note, GAF urged the public to cross-check all information they receive about the security services to avoid spreading misinformation.
It contends that such actions tend to create unnecessary tension and also cause fear and panic.
It furthered, “GAF wishes to once again remind all and sundry that its doors are opened and they should not hesitate to contact the Department of Public Relations for any inquiries about the Institution.
“Anything that is done deliberately or inadvertently against the peace of the country should be avoided. GAF reiterates its commitment to safeguarding the stability and sovereignty of the nation.”
