Samuel Jinapor welcomed the recent travel advisory. The advisory was issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It followed a deadly attack in Burkina Faso.
However, Mr Jinapor called the directive insufficient on its own. He is a Ranking Member on Parliament's Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration Committee.
He believes Ghana needs urgent security measures. These measures should go beyond just travel warnings.
The specific nature of the attack in Burkina Faso was not detailed. The advisory aims to inform Ghanaian citizens about risks.
Ghanaian institutions are involved in cross-border security. These institutions are reviewing their protocols.
There is a continuous focus on protecting Ghanaians abroad. There is also a focus on border security.
