Boga Ali Hashim in a facebook post wrote “This ‘nonsense’ must stop. Sekondi Takoradi is no longer safe and sound. Influx of robbery attacks, kidnappings, serial killings, it has become one too many. We’re not at peace.
“Sometimes, I wonder what these police team dispatched at various check point on our roads do, These criminals obviously operate with motorbikes and vehicles yet they’re not apprehended. ‘A BIG QUESTION FOR ANOTHER DAY.
“To me, It’s time we have a massive military patrolling team in this city at least in the night. This I believe would put some level of fear in these ‘good for nothing’ people who perpetrate this atrocious and nefarious act.
” It’s sad to see such a vibrant and young guy shot and murdered in his own residence. This could be you and I or any other person.

” On that note, I’ll plead with the Western Regional Minister, MCE, Regional Security Council and all the stakeholders to put this into consideration thus providing Sekondi Takoradi with military patrol. Thank you! #MILITARYPATROLINSEKONDITAKORADINOW.
