It is the responsibility of the police to wipe out armed robbery. If we let the soldiers in, we will be seen by outside nations as Ghana having police state and that will even scare away foreigners and investors the more. The best thing is to increase the numbers of trained police who should eschew corruption and be more professional. They should patrol every night and day in prone armed robbery areas. In addition, they should be well equipped with logistics including patrol vehicles and weapons. CCTV will also help and we hope this popular government will do something to eradicate this menace.

I don't even understand why they keep them in barracks when Ghanaian citizens are being killed by armed robbers. The Blackman's logic God save us.

I fully supports the bishop because we need to maintain the peace that is in Ghana. Very soon there will be so many Investors in the Country. What annoys me most is the maltreatments they give to their victims. We do not need armed robbers in Ghana, so the Army should join the police to embark on such operation.

Thank You

Lets cast our minds back to Ahsaiman some years back was no go zone. The place was full of notorious armed robbers but when the commandos were given the task to clean them and make it a better place worth living, it is now a place worth living but due to laxity of security, the town is still now harboring sizable pockets of robbers and criminals.Our armed soldiers should clean this menace before it is too lat. They should be deployed incommunicado.

God will protect us by all means at all cost. Addition to that the military must not carry the guns and stay at barracks, they must come and combat with this menace in our Ghanaian communities.

These wannabe army personnel are just as guilty of robbery as civilians. I don't trust any of them. After all low salary means they have to enhance their income.

Am in full support to this wise counsel from our Bishops, a greater number of soldier's are in the barracks while arm robbers have a field day. is about time soldier's come to the help of the citizens.
