  • Albert Kessel 2 years ago

    Warrant Officers (also known as Sergeant Majors) are non commissioned officers. The Commissioned Officer Rank starts from 2nd Lieutenant (after graduation from the Military Academy).

    The officer corps starts from the rank of 2/Lt. to Lieutenant General or Field Marshall.

    For Senior Military Officer it starts from Maj ...

    Please report your case to the police if you suspect fraud. Or, you can sue GOTV for a refund of your fees. This is not a diplomatic matter that should involve the government.

    Regardless of his title or rank or years of service, if this alleged criminal is proven guilty, he should face the full rigors of the law. Period. We tend to be obsessed with titles and positions in our country. Jail the ba ...

    Sorry a wo1 is not a senior military officer. He is an other rank. Senior Officers are those who are commissioned into the army by the president. The headline is misleading to the public.

    How on earth can the police arrest a military man. All this while I taught the police cannot touch or arrest a military man. I taught the military are the superior? Someone should explain to me.

    Ghanaians, whether the military man in the case is a senior officer or not, does not matter. Kidnapping is a serious offence, and the suspect rank has nothing to do with it. He is a criminal who should face the law.
