Binduri, Ghana — A wave of deadly violence has swept through Binduri Constituency, resulting in the tragic loss of a mother and her four children in the latest of several brutal attacks. The local Member of Parliament has issued a stern condemnation of these assaults and is advocating for urgent measures to restore safety and hold those responsible accountable.
In a heartfelt response, the parliamentarian voiced immense sorrow over the loss of lives and significant property damage, calling the attacks indefensible. Reacting particularly to the recent Benguri massacre, he stressed, “Such acts of violence against innocent civilians are appalling and must be roundly condemned.”
The lawmaker has extended his condolences to the families that have been devastated by these tragic events and has confirmed that cooperative efforts are ongoing with security forces to secure the area and bring the assailants to justice. In light of the incidents, the MP urged the community to support and collaborate closely with law enforcement agencies.
Highlighting some responsive measures, the official praised the military’s professionalism in its prompt action to arrest suspects and confiscate weapons thought to be linked to the violence. He encouraged continued vigilance in pursuit of all those involved in these brutal acts.
However, the legislator also voiced concerns regarding the methods used by the military in their operations, specifically critiquing the confiscation and destruction of motorbikes. He underscored the necessity for due process and proper handling of such seizures, pointing out that, “The act of seizing and burning motorbikes by the military is not acceptable. These should be held properly by the security agencies and handled according to the legal framework concerning motorbike use.”
As the situation unfolds, the MP remains firm on his commitment to collaborate with various stakeholders to reinstate peace in the constituency. His focus resonates with an overarching desire to see an end to the violence that has plagued the Binduri area and restore confidence among the terror-stricken residents.
The violence in Binduri has not only stirred fear across the constituency but also triggered widespread calls for enhanced security measures and a swift, transparent investigation to address the root causes and prevent further loss of life. The commitment to justice and restoration of peace is a crucial step towards healing and rebuilding the affected communities in this part of Ghana.
