Military personnel besieged Ashaiman on Tuesday, March 7, 2023, with helicopters and armoured vehicles to brutalise civilians following the murder of a military officer, Trooper Sherriff Imoro, who was allegedly stabbed in the town on Saturday, March 4, 2023.

Mr Nogbey in an interview with Citi News said they will push till all arrested residents are freed.

“Out of the 184 [detained by the military], 150 have been released

As we speak, we have about 34 yet to be released by the military, and they state that they are just screening them.

I just met with the 150 including their families and calmed the situation down and assured them that we are going to take charge of the situation and also provide some leadership for them so none of them should take the law into their hands,” the Ashaiman MP said.
