Police offer GH¢50k bounty for man wanted over threat to harm public officials

The police have called for the public’s cooperation to ensure the swift apprehension of the suspect, as his threats have raised significant security concerns.
This development comes on the heels of unrest in Walewale, where tensions flared during the vote-counting process in the re-run of the New Patriotic Party Parliamentary Primary. The Ghana Police Service restored calm after one person, Kamara Bawah, was arrested for damaging ballot papers. Bawah is currently assisting the police with their investigation.
Security has since been strengthened in Walewale and surrounding areas to maintain law and order, particularly in light of the forthcoming December 7 general elections.
The police service is under pressure as they contend with increasing crime rates, alongside rising instances of misinformation and disinformation in the lead-up to the elections.
