Government Creates Counter Terrorism Unit Headed By National Security Advisor

In another measure set to combat the growing menace of terrorism, the President, John Dramani Mahama, has announced the creation of a Counter Terrorism Unit.
Addressing members of the council of State, the President revealed the new creation, which he said has already started exchanging actionable intelligence with our close neighbours.
“The National Security has set up a Counter-Terrorism Unit which is chaired by the national security advisor,” the President said.
“One of the most important thing is intelligence sharing and we are getting a lot of intelligence from our neighbours – Ivory Coast, Guinea and Burkina Faso – and we are all alert and watching to see if there are suspicious people.”
The National Security Advisor is Baba Kamara, and he has been tapped to head the unit.
