Former President Rawlings has accused the NPP administration of deliberately recruiting party supporters into the military. In an address to mark the 23rd anniversary of the June Four uprising, the ex-President alleged that there is an orchestrated attempt to fill up vacancies in the military with supporters of the NPP. Mr. Rawlings challenged Defense Minister, Kwame Addo-Kufuor to refute the allegations.
?Addo Kufuor is bent on planning to retire some of our most experienced security personnel either by age or through frustration with the design to replace them with about 1,044 civilians who are to be recruited through the recommendation of the NPP appointed District Chief Executives?.
He noted that the ultimate aim of the NPP government is to have an Army, which owe allegiance to the Kufuor government and thereby deprive the Army of its neutrality.
The former President who described the plan as dangerous urged Commanders of the Army to resist the planned move
