Richard Jakpa and Mustapha Gbande arrest another High-Profile person with the help of Ibrahim Mahama

The Nigerian businessman Ben Peters was arrested in Kanda, which is close to the presidential residence, Jubilee House. The operation was a public one featuring Ghana’s National Security, Military, and Police. The dramatic arrest, which happened in tense circumstances, has made people worry about national security when outsiders are in key government areas.

Citi Newsroom said that Peters was at the centre of a standoff because he had parked his cars in front of the door to the Aurora Apartments, making it hard for other residents to get in. Officials, such as Richard Jakpa and Mustapha Gbande, who is the Vice Director of Operations for the Presidency, started a coordinated reaction to the disturbance.

Peters tried to avoid being arrested by hiding and holding up security staff. No one could move until Ibrahim Mahama, President Akufo-Addo’s brother, showed up and helped calm things down. With his help, Peters and a few of his armed friends were successfully arrested.

National Security has stated that the vehicles involved in the incident have been taken away. Peters’ intentions are still not clear, but probes are still going on. People are more worried than ever about the risks that unchecked foreigners may pose when they are near important government assets because of this incident.
