Colonel Eric Aggrey Quarshie disclosed that the occurrence of uniformed Military officers appearing in at private events without approval has become “one too many,” hence their strong resolve to clamp down on it.
Colonel Quarshie added the deplorable practice was bringing utmost disrepute to the uniform and all that it stands for. He maintained that personnel from the Ghana Armed Forces were not for hire to the highest bidder.

Col. Aggrey Quarshie further clarifed that the military personnels who had been picked up were being detained whilst they waited investigation and subsequently being issued the appropriate sanction for their illegal actions once the investigations are concluded.
The colonel further discussed that the probable punishment to be meted includes but not limited to caution or outright dismissal depending on the outcome of the investigations.
It is his strong believe that this would serve as a deterrent to other erring officers who indulge in such frivolous actions in contravention to the code of conduct of the Ghana Armed Forces.
