FOR POSTING A SELFIE, SOLDIER LANDS IN TROUBLE!

A Private in the army has landed in serious
trouble after sharing what he thought was a
harmless selfie on social media.
This Kalyppo selfie has landed the Army
officer in trouble
A Ghanaian military officer might be regretting
his action after a photo of him sipping a
popular fruit drink went viral.
The Kalyppo selfie has forced the Ghana
Armed Forces (GAF) to commence
investigation against the officer for possible
breach of regulations, Army PRO has said.
While speaking with MyJoyOnline on
Wednesday, Colonel Aggrey Quarshie said that
Private Osei Owusu of the Ghana Military
Police is responding to questions regarding
his act which is deemed as an affront to the
Armed Forces Regulations Act of 1962.
He explained that pictures taken using
“military accoutrement” are technically the
property of the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF),
saying officers who want to use them for
personal purposes must apply for clearance.
“Your picture does not belong to you and you
are not supposed to do anything with it,” he
said.
A picture of Private Owusu dressed in his
military police outfit clutching the Kalyppo
drink circulated social media, barely three
days after a picture of the flagbearer of the
New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Addo
Dankwa Akufo-Addo sipping the fruit juice
