Butler Barracks inaugurated
The Finance Minister and acting Minister of Defence, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, has inaugurated the Butler Barracks accommodation and office complex, reaffirming the government’s commitment to improving the welfare and operational readiness of the Ghana Armed Forces.
The inauguration, one of Dr Forson’s final official engagements as acting Minister of Defence ahead of handing over the portfolio, saw the opening of new facilities for the Central Ordnance Depot, the Ghana Armed Forces Central Band and the Armed Forces Music School.
He said while the government could not meet every infrastructure requirement of the Ghana Armed Forces on its own, stronger partnerships with the private sector could help to accelerate the delivery of critical defence infrastructure.
