Videos emerging from the community on Sunday, October 22, show soldiers loading their canoes back onto trucks for transportation.
A tweet by a broadcaster who was on the ground during this supposed recall explained that this was due to a supposed “order from above.”
On the site was Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwah, who expressed dissatisfaction about the development.
“Why are they doing this to us? We are also Ghanaians? We are human beings? I mean nobody is a second-class citizen in this country. Why are they recalling the military? Why should they be doing that? I can’t believe what is going on,” he lamented to Naa Ashorkor.

He subsequently tweeted that “Who “above” has given orders to the military detachment helping us cross flood waters to immediately withdraw when the water levels haven’t receded and when thousands of lives are at stake in camps across these waters? Who in government is behind this utter cruelty?”
Meanwhile, the North Tongu legislator has announced that he has fresh information a new decision to reverse the order.
“I just received a call indicating that the order has been reversed and that the soldiers have been directed to return with their boats and resume duty,” he tweeted.
