Before the general elections on December 7, 2024, in Ghana, Lieutenant Colonel Jacob Codjoe, who leads the Achiase Jungle Warfare Training School, cautions those planning to disrupt the elections.
During a peace concert held at the Salvation Army Church in Akyem Oda, Lt. Col. Codjoe stressed the military’s preparedness to ensure peaceful and orderly elections.
His comments show how seriously the military takes its responsibility in upholding the peace of the nation.
He encouraged voters to vote and go home after the polls close, suggesting they return later only for the vote-counting process.
“I am telling you here that I will only intervene on the 7th of December within the Akyemansa enclave if the police inform me they cannot handle the situation. And when I come, I will not talk. I will beat you, and the hell with you. I always want people to try me,” Lt. Col. Codjoe declared.
Lt. Col. Codjoe also urged citizens to go back home once the results are revealed, emphasizing that security forces will not jeopardize the country’s peace for a small group of people.
He urged voters to cast their ballots and return home until polling closes, advising them to come back later only for the counting of votes. “We have a duty, as religious leaders, security heads, family heads, and individuals, to protect the good things we have as a country. The only good thing we have now is the peace we are enjoying. Because with peace, everything can progress. If we destroy it now, nothing can go on,” he stated.
