STOP ESCORTING YOUR FRIENDS TO AND FROM KIA, ELSE YOU’LL BE SACKED – Henry Quartey Warns Immigration Officers

Immigration officers stationed at Kotoka International Airport (KIA) have received a warning from Interior Minister, Henry Quartey against the practice of welcoming or accompanying friends at the airport.

The minister made it clear in a directive that any Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) officer found to be in violation of this direction would be fired.

Minister Quartey expressed his disgust at certain officers’ behaviour on Thursday, April 4, when visiting the GIS headquarters in Accra.

He cited incidents in which uniformed police were observed helping pals get through security and immigration checkpoints—a practice he found intolerable.

“Men and women wear uniforms only to go and see off their friends at the Airport. They pull their bags right from the car and walk through checking, walk them through immigration and even security points all the way.

“You see them lined up waiting for their friends, they take their bags. I have told the CG to send a message to them that it has to stop with immediate effect, and I mean immediate effect.

“We will send plain clothes to go there. If an immigration officer is found around the arrival hall or departure hall, engaging passengers please consider that you will be at home for a long time and that will be coming from me, not the CG. So, tell them,” myjoyonline.com quoted him to have said during his visit to the headquarters.
