A letter dated 23 November 2021 and signed by Regional Minister, Samuel Yakubu and copied to the Chairman of MUSEC, Bawku Municipal Assembly, said this was necessitated by the fact that criminals or unscrupulous elements hide arms and ammunition in smocks and subsequently attack opponents or innocent civilians with those arms.
