President John Dramani Mahama is expected to nominate persons for major security appointments before the week ends.
This follows the recent nomination of ministers-designate for Finance, Energy and Green Transition, and the Office of the Attorney General and Justice.
The security appointments forms part of President Mahama's effort to address the Bawku crisis which has lingered on for years.
Addressing chiefs and people of the Kusaug Traditional Area at the Bawku Naba Palace on January 14, President Mahama emphasized the need for his incoming appointees to prioritise the crisis in Bawku. "And so within this week, we'll do the appointments of the Minister for Defence, the Minister for Interior, the National Security co-ordinator, the national security advisor, the BNI director; and when these appointments are made I am going to charge them to make Bawku one of their major priorities." "This last election has cemented our reputation as the leading democracy in Africa and a good part of the thanks goes to you the security services who have maintained peace.
