The government is reported by the Evening News in another story as saying that it will not encourage the continued existence of the Association of Committees for the Defence of the Revolution (ACDR) in the Armed Forces of the country.
"The constitution allows for freedom of association but it is the existence of the ACDRs in the police and Armed Forces which is unacceptable and incongruous," Alhaji Malik Al-Hassan Yakubu, Minister of the interior expressed these sentiments at a news conference organized in Accra on Tuesday to address current security issues in the country.
He warned that the government will not tolerate any acts of lawlessness on the part of any organization including the ACDRs, stating however, that any group that acts within the law will be free to exercise its right to freedom of association.
