Over the weekend, Ghanaian rapper Medikal and Fella Makafui tied the knot in a colourful traditional ceremony at East Legon, Accra.
The ceremony was graced by friends and family from both sides respectively. At the event, there were some persons clad in Military uniforms with their faces veiled acting as security for the couple.
However, latest development after the ceremony has it that the soldiers who acted as escorts at the traditional wedding ceremony between Medikal and Fella Makafui in their uniforms have been arrested.
This came to light when Head of Public Relations, Colonel Eric Aggrey Quarshie briefed GhanaWeb in an exclusive interview about this new development.
Colonel Eric Aggrey Quarshie indicated that Military officers in uniform making appearance at private events without approval had become “one too many,” hence, the need to clamp it.
Colonel Quarshie further noted with concern that the practice was bringing the name of his outfit into disrepute and maintained that personnel from the Ghana Armed Forces were not for hire to the highest bidder.
He stressed that the officers who had been picked up were being investigated and the appropriate sanction or otherwise would be carried out since the practice was illegal.
He added that the sanctions to be meted ranged from caution to even dismissal depending on the outcome of the investigations.
