Focus on poor internet, not military officers – NDC communicator tells Sam George

A communicator of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has urged the Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, to concentrate on addressing Ghana’s persistent internet connectivity challenges rather than directing criticism at military officers.

The communicator’s remarks come amid public discussions surrounding concerns about internet services and the role of security personnel in matters involving the country’s digital and telecommunications infrastructure.

He argued that the minister should prioritise improving the quality, reliability and accessibility of internet services, which remain important to businesses, students, public institutions and ordinary users.

According to the communicator, poor internet connectivity continues to affect productivity and the smooth delivery of digital services, making it necessary for the ministry to focus its attention on finding practical solutions.

He suggested that addressing network disruptions, slow internet speeds and inadequate coverage should take precedence over disagreements involving military personnel.

The comments also place attention on the responsibilities of the Communications Ministry, which is expected to develop policies and coordinate interventions aimed at improving Ghana’s digital infrastructure.

Sam George has been actively involved in discussions about telecommunications regulation, internet access and the performance of service providers.

However, the specific remarks by the NDC communicator, including the military-related comments that prompted his criticism, were not detailed in the information available.

The development highlights continuing public expectations for improvements in Ghana’s internet services, particularly as more businesses, educational institutions and government agencies depend on digital platforms.

The communicator’s message was that the minister should direct his attention towards resolving the connectivity problems affecting Ghanaians rather than becoming involved in disagreements with military officers.
