The Ghana Police Service has dismissed reports of alleged militia training in Bawku, Upper East Region, calling the claims entirely unfounded.
In an official statement, the Police expressed concern over the spread of these baseless allegations and reaffirmed their commitment to maintaining peace and security in the area.

They strongly condemned the spread of false information, which they believe is meant to incite unnecessary fear and unrest.
“The Ghana Police Service has noted with concern a publication alleging the training of some militiamen at Bawku in the Upper East Region.
We wish to state that our investigation has found no evidence of such training in the area or its environs.”
“This is the second of such false publications within a week by some unpatriotic individuals intended to create unnecessary alarm and panic among the public.
The Police are working to bring the perpetrators to book and the public should be assured that we will get them.”
