Security analyst, Adam Bonaa has questioned the exclusion of security officers manning the Burkina Faso border in investigations into the arrest of a Burkinabe with a gun in a Ghanaian church.

The suspect arrested with a loaded gun at the Catholic Church in Hamile in the Upper West Region is being investigated to be processed for court.

But Adam Bonaa is proposing that security officers manning the border be questioned on how the suspect got into the country.

He was speaking on his weekly security programme ‘Alert with Adam Bonaa’ on Starr FM.

“That particular church that guy attended I was there in December, I slept in a guest house overlooking the border between Ghana and Burkina Faso and you can just walk in. The place looks deserted and the question I kept asking is, this is a border town and you have no presence of security, you have an Immigration post which is far away from the main road which is very dusty. I picked information that we have a large detachment of military officers cum police officers in this area. Fortunately, nothing happened but should we have waited to do this deployment, we shouldn’t have waited for this man to come into this country with his gun.

“As we speak probably nobody has been called to answer, there will be somebody who’s in charge of Immigration in that region, until we begin to call out people and say you are responsible for this territory and you say yes I’m responsible but you haven’t given me the resources that I need to be able to do my work as an Immigration official in charge of the region,” Adam Bonaa added.
