Member of Parliament K.T. Hammond has made a call for the government to use the presidential jet. He wants the jet to travel to South Africa.
The purpose is to bring Ghanaian citizens home. This is due to ongoing xenophobic attacks in South Africa.
Mr. Hammond believes this action would send a significant signal. It would show those involved in the attacks that Ghana protects its people.
He stated that such a move demonstrates that Ghana cares for its citizens abroad. This is especially important during times of danger.
The call highlights concerns for the safety of Ghanaians living in South Africa.
Further details regarding any government response or action were not immediately available.
