The Immigration issues them with permit based on the period they will be staying in Ghana Waters.

Please, go and read the laws of the country and stop the ignorance.

The Vessel contains two components.
( Humans Beings and Goods or Cargo)

All humans on the vessel are foreigners who need visa or permit to enter into Ghana.

In Ghana, Immigration is the only institution that issues visa or permit to foreigners.
So why will you stop them from performing their duty.

Which law in Ghana recognised Bank, Port or any private institution security as superior over state own security?

They should try this next time and you will hear of death in the media.

It will be prudent you go to the port and do proper investigation about what transpired between the two services.
1. As a citizen you’re not concerned about people boarding vessels with empty bags and when they’re exiting they have bags loaded with items.
2. You’re not concerned about the compromising of the GIS men who boarded the vessels and decided to take goodies instead of focusing on their core duty.
3. It will be good you get the difference between a security personnel and a civilian. The GIS personnel refused to search and their reason was that “they can't subject their selves to search because the port security guards are civilians.
4. The same GIS personnel has on countless occasions refused to search and even assaulted some people. There are a lot of things the some GIS men do and it's overlooked but this time round, they needed to be told the truth.

Did you read the news portal?

1 Is it the first time the GIS is conducting that routine checks?

2. Do you know GPHA has main gate that everyone is searched before leaving the Harbour?

3. Why won't they wait for the officer to stoped at their main entrance for security search?

4. The GIS officers allowed their bags to be searched?

5. Any Security officer will not allow civilian to search them which is international standard?

6. Even Male Officers are not allow to search female civilians or fellow Officers.

7. If they are trained Officers, why can't they take picture and video evidence to report to higher authority?

8. GPHA Officers don't use weapons, if the GIS Officers shot them, will you be writing this grammar here?

9. GPHA called for enforcement to deal with the officers, Imagine Immigration called their Rapid Response Unit( RRU, Research about RRU and you will understand)

10. How can civilians security will take the law into their own hands and attack Security operations and you will be here writing Grammar.

11. We don't leave in the jungle or lawless area, we must respect authority and power.

There is huge respect in the security set up where every officer respects superior than any other institution in the world. Simple report to GPHA management or GIS management should have solve the problem.

This is national security breach and we need to be serious as a country.

@Otoo kindly get a copy of the ISPS code of the port and educate yourself before you say what you're telling the public.
Your point 1: it is not the first time the GIS are conducting their checks and after their search, they subject their selves to search by the people you call them Civilians.
Your point 2: vehicular and human search are conducted at all the access points. 3. Do you know the ships or vessels are countries of their own and things entering and existing must be declared to the people you call civilians.
4. Let me educate you on what is called Security and knowing the difference between a civilian and a security personnel. Civilians typically aren't trained or authorized to enforce laws or maintain security, while security personnel are specifically trained and tasked with protecting people, property, or information. So tell me who the GPHA security is.
I won't go further but try and read more about the ISPS or the SOPs of the GIS and that of the GPHA Security and deduce your understanding of from it.

The GPHA Security searches not only the GIS but every port user who accesses the port. It wasn't a deliberate attempt to target the GIS personnel and search them but a requirement that they are aware of. No bag or item leaves the port or the vessel without a search.
The GIS men went to a vessel to account for the number of crew on the vessel. Upon returning they are carrying heavy bags and you don't want to be searched?
If the GIS men knew what they were carrying wasn't anything bad why did they refuse to be searched

Ghanaweb is giving a biased report. The Port rules and regulations demand that any person entering the premises of the port be certified with a pass pending security check. The Immigration officers assigned at the Port are supposed to check and confirm the crew member list presented by vessels. However, these Immigration and Custom officers will always come with empty bags, board the Vessels and come out with the bags fully loaded and you don't expect them to be searched? Anyway the GPHA Security is an autonomous body by law and undergoes military training before enlistment.

They incite them against the formal security institutions due to political interference. all the the major ports in country are experiencing this situations. if you try to let them know the level at which they can operate, then you become the target or even frame. most heads only realize it when they leave office or they are not in uniform and are being mishandled.

The rules are made to prevent officers from being compromised.
You are perhaps searching a female in a place that, in most instances only the two of you are there. It may end up with you rapping the woman or the woman comprimising you, and as soon as she compromise you, you cannot say that you found something on her.

This is stupidity to the highest order. Both officers should be punished by disgracing themselves in uniform and Ghana as a whole. The GPHA security officers shouldn't have taken the law into their own hands to forcefully insist to search the immigration officer when he refused to be searched. The antidote here is, the security officers should have informed their supervisors to determine the appropriate action to take against the immigration officer at the time. Gidigidii is not the way to go in some of these situations. Let's show maturity and wisdom in all things.

An act of uncivilized sub-humans. That is how I will sum up the situation. A Ghanaian in a security uniform feels like he/she can defeat death. What kind of stupidity is that?

Can these people show maturity and let commonsense lead them than exposing how stupid they are? How can entities like these rules themselves as independent nation?

Arrogance, pomposity, haughtiness are the results of such uncouth behavior among Ghanaians. Why do we feel big when we are in a particular uniform?

So ar no comment has mentioned the main cause of clash: male GHPA security personnel attempting to search female GIS officers.

The GHPA was wrong: GIS has every right to resist male security personnel searching female GIS.

The GHPA should have used the female security to search the bodies of the female GIS officers. This is the standard operation procedure every where.

How can men search the bodies of female? This can't be done.

Ghanaian security personnel often resort to physical confrontation rather than relying on the law to resolve conflicts, leading to disgraceful instances of violence. This reliance on physical force undermines the principles of law enforcement and reflects poorly on the professionalism and integrity of our security forces. It is imperative that security personnel prioritize adherence to the law and uphold their duty to protect and serve the public with dignity and respect.

You will lose the argument if you want to go in that direction.
Talking about Legal Authorities, let me educate you small.

Among GIS personnel and GPHA security personnel, it is the GPHA security personnel who have the legal authority of operation. Let's deal with it one after the other.

GPHA Security Personnel are vested with legal authority to enforce security regulations within the port. They have the power to control access, conduct inspections, and ensure compliance with both local and international maritime security laws. This legal mandate is crucial for maintaining the security and safety of the port, its operations, and its users. When we talk about its users, including all the sister security services in the port GIS is not exceptional.

GIS Personnel play a critical role in managing spatial data and supporting operational efficiency, they do not typically possess enforcement authority. Their work is more technical and analytical, providing essential information for decision-making and operational planning but without the legal mandate to enforce rules or regulations.
In summary, GPHA security personnel hold the legal authority necessary for enforcing security measures and regulations within the port environment.
