The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) would by April 1 introduce a pocket size version of the Forces Code of Ethics for all soldiers, Lieutenant General Joseph B. Danquah, Chief of Defence Staff has said.
“Most of the soldiers tend to forget some of the ethics of our profession after they have passed out, so this booklet will serve as a guide to them in times of difficulty,” the military chief reiterated.
Lt. Gen. Danquah said this on Tuesday when he inaugurated a therapeutic fountain built by the Forces Pay Office (FPO) Unit in Accra.
Lieutenant Colonel Ababio Serebour, Commanding Officer of the Unit, said the FPO’s duties had been very stressful hence the construction of the fountain to help them unwind.
He said the unit was also putting up accommodation facilities from its own resources for the personnel. This includes a nine-bedroom apartment situated at the Amnesty Centre in Burma Camp, Accra which will house at least 18 soldiers.
Lt-Col Serebour called on the GAF to expedite work on computerization of the FPO to enable it meet current global transformation in information technology.
