Minister for Defence, Dr Edward Omane Boamah, has assured the people of Bawku that government will restore the Bawku Naba statue, which was destroyed over the weekend.
Describing the act as “regrettable and unacceptable,” the Minister said efforts are already underway to rebuild the monument, which holds deep traditional and symbolic value for the community.
“I condemned the destruction of the cherished statue in Bawku over the weekend,” Dr Boamah stated in a Facebook post on Thursday, July 17, following a durbar at Burma Camp.
“I assured that the government shall rebuild the statue and expects appropriate sanctions to be meted out to the perpetrators.”
He also revealed that the Defence Ministry was closely monitoring the situation and would support security operations to ensure peace and accountability in the area.
The Defence Minister further decried the shooting of two soldiers in Bawku, describing the incident as a disturbing escalation that required swift justice.
“The Ghana Armed Forces remain committed to protecting lives and maintaining order in every part of the country,” Dr Boamah affirmed.
He called for collaboration between the military, traditional authorities, and residents to restore calm and dignity.
“Let us unite to uphold peace, protect tradition, and strengthen the bonds that hold our nation together,” he added.
