Mr Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, a Special Assistant to Dr. Kwame Addo Kufuor, former Minister of Defence, said stability in the country was considerably better now than 10 years ago. Mr Afriyie, who was speaking to the Ho Polytechnic branch of the Tertiary Education Students Confederation (TESCON) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), attributed the accomplishment to the good policies of the NPP government. He said the police and other security agencies were better motivated under the NPP government than under any other government and are committed to fight crime. Mr Afriyie said the NPP government had provided everything to make personnel of security agencies happy including the continuing provision of "excellent state of the art accommodation for the military". "It is not for nothing that we are enjoying the peace we have in the country today - it is the investment the NPP government is making in security." He said the government had created good relationship among the police, military and civil society towards ensuring peace. "Many soldiers are now living well and are able to buy their own cars, build houses and educate their children well". Mr Owusu Afriyie said government was also installing special communication gadgets to enhance the work of security agencies and called on all to support the bid to deepen peace in the country.Source: GNA
