I don't get that NPP Parliamentary Candidate@ DCE for Amemfi West.
Security officers don't need permission from any one including the President to do their mandated job. The 1992 constitution is clear , the criminal offences acts are also clear. Ones a crime or offense is being committed in any place in the Ghana, they can move and arrest the culprits. We have used politics and greed to destroy our country. What the security services must do now is to ensure they act professionally by not engaging themselves in illegality , extortion etc.
But it must be clear to the politicians and the illegal miners that security officers don't need an operation vanguard, galastop, galahalt etc before arresting illegal miners.
The law is clear. It only a Ghana we worship these greedy people who incite people against state security officers.

Stop that childish comment, okay? Who told you that? While we do not condone any act of insubordination against the soldiers, the soldiers have not "RIGHT" to take the law into their hand.

Ask yourself this simple question, "who is a soldier in Ghana", and the simple answer is "a Ghanaian civilian who have had a military training". Our soldiers are recruited from the civilian population which means what to you?

Some of us see soldiers as "do all" as if our soldiers are immortals. The guy who issued that statement from Amenfi west or whatever should be arrested and charge for inciting the civilians against our soldiers.

The relationship that is existing between the civilians and the soldiers, should remain as so because we are all Ghanaians. Remember that after the soldier leaves the military, he comes back into the civilian population, right or wrong?

Is the military leadership also afraid of npp under akufo addo? Why can’t they hold the PC/MCE and the regional minister for these inciting comments against them, no balls again? Look at Burkina Faso and Mali, even Guinea

@AA are you by this implying that it was wrong when members and sympathisers of the NPP insulted JM (and continue to do so) when he was in the seat of the Presidency as President of the Republic of Ghana. If your answer is yes then public apology to JM would be in order, on the other hand if your answer is no then Nana Addo deserves to be insulted with no apologies.

Arrest the one making the call. He is not above the laws of the country. It's better for the military to act now than wait for what he is calling for to happen and turn their weapons on innocent people.

Respect the army for overthrowing a democratically elected government? The army in power is the most corrupt and abuser of the rights of Ghanaians. It has happened several times in Ghana especially during Rawlings AFRC regime. A military regime in any country is a curse to that country and Ghana is no exception.

ACTUALLY the Mp is right,no police or military can take any action without strickt orders....if they do so it's illegal.GAF should know very well that Soldiers are not made for intervention in public affairs...Soldiers are to protect the country and can be used in special operations in case of state attacks...not to intimidate citizens neither to replace police work,unless extrême cases if the police forces can't handle a situation with the options they have..By law a soldier is not allowed to beat his own citizens just to show their powers...that's abuse of authority and an insult to the uniform. So I believe the mp didn't say wrong here,as it's your right as a citizen to protect your privacy and to allow NOBODY on your property without a WARRANT for court.

The statement that Government has halted it's operations against illegal mining, and the call to face of with and probably assault law enforcement officers made by the Parliamentary Candidate are most unfortunate and inimical to the peace and stability of this country. And this is particularly serious because the statements were made in the presence of the Regional Minister, who is also the chairman of the Regional Security Council. This minister sat there as though unconcerned or perhaps even in agreement with the candidate.

Military can go to the sites only to visit but not to stop their activities if unauthorised ,and this is what the MP communicated to them. It was an advise to both the security men and the galamseyers.

This is an empty talk if something is unlawful why can't you arrest the person who issued the statement or you don't know the person? go to TV3 they can give you the tape nonsense.
