President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has cut short his United States trip following the recent spate of robberies across the country.
Nana Akufo-Addo who left Ghana for a 10-day visit to Togo, the United States of America, and Germany on February 23, 2018 and was scheduled to return on Monday, March 5, but will instead return tonight [Saturday], March 3, 2018.
Citifmonline.com’s sources at the Presidency have said that President Akufo-Addo’s early return is due to the upsurge in robbery cases in the country.
Some Ghanaians took to social media earlier this week to express disappointment at the President for being away from the country while Ghanaians are terrorised by robbers and other armed assailants.
Minister of State in charge of National Security, Bryan Acheampong, had disclosed that over 200 robbery cases have been recorded since January 2018.
There has been a significant increase in the number of cases so far this year as compared to the same time last year.
The President’s visit to Togo saw him resume mediation efforts to finding “a lasting solution” to the country’s political impasse.
In the US, the President Akufo-Addo addressed the National Governors Association (NGA) Winter Meeting, in Washington.
He later went to Germany where delivered the keynote address at the 5th German-African Economic Forum, in Dortmund.
Nana Akufo-Addo returned to the U.S. where he took part in the World Leader’s Forum programme, organised by the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).

GOOD JOB MR. PRESIDENT. YOU HAVE RESPONDED TO AN URGERNT CALL TO COME HOME TO FIGHT TERRORISM. CAN YOU STAY IN GHANA FIGHT THE ENEMY IN GHANA? CAN YOU TRAVEL TO EACH REGION PER WEEK TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS? CAN YOU DEPUTIZE YOUR ABLE MINISTERS TO READ THE SPEECHES ON YOUR BEHALF? YOU ARE NOT LEADING IF YOU ARE DOING ALL THE WORK. WHAT WILL THE 110 MINISTERS BE DOING? CAMPAIGN TIME IS APPROACHING. STAY HOME AND CAMPAIGN. YOU CAN CREATE JOBS BY CREATING AN ARMY OF YOUNG PATRIOTS. LIKE THE GHANA YOUNG PIONEERS. EMPLOY THOUSANDS OF THEM. REGISTER ONE DISTRICT, ONE THOUSAND YOUNG PIONEERS. WORKERS BRIGADE. PWD. EMPLOY YOUR OWN PEOPLE TO BUILD THEIR OWN NATION. LET THEM DEAL WITH SECURITY ISSUES IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES. EXPAND INFRASTRUCTURE. BUILD ROADS. BUILD SCHOOLS. BUILD HOSPITALS. BUILD HOUSING. DEVELOP JOBS. JOBS. JOBS.
People take us for foollsss. It's been almost a week since these robbery attacks, and this dwarf had still been away in the wake of these insecurity, so don't come and get us angry. He is nothing but a junk of a president. Who does this?
what good is it if you buy the media to propagate lies. no wonder we are in a shiiit hole country.armed robbery everywhere yet we have a president who not only condemn the act but pretend it does not exist. this is because the incompetence slogan is raising its head.the only government with 110 ministers yet her citizens are not safe. only lip services. mahama was corrupt because only his brother happened to be the only successful businessman in the country. akuffo addo is going to be worse because he has all his family members in governance.
