He assured the general public and personnel of the scheme of managements committment to the wellbeing of National Service Personnel and called for calm as they work tirelessly to address the issues.

 
Ambrobrose Entsiwah Jnr , assured all service personnel that Management will initiate the payment of allowances to reflect any increment initially agreed upon, once the adjustment of allowances is captured in the soon to be read budget.
