“We have embarrassed ourselves as a country. The National Security should be ashamed for what they did. Why should they fire warning shot in just a by-election?”
Social Commentator, Sydney Casely believes the way and manner security agencies handled the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election dented the image of the country.
Masked and armed men were physically assaulting the Member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram, Sam George. Shooting people. Speaking on The Big Issue on Saturday, Casely Hayford said the way the National Security appeared at the election centre was intimidating and created an impression that they were on a mission to battle with the Islamic State group, ISIS.
“I am appalled and national security should accept that these operatives and masked hoodlums we are talking about sitting in police SWAT cars and patrolling around and doing what they did, were not actually national security operatives. When I looked at them, they were in gears that symbolized that they were going to fight ISIS, with all the paraphernalia to go and stop an attack.”
“We have embarrassed ourselves as a country. The National Security should be ashamed for what they did. Why should they fire warning shot in just a by-election?” he quizzed.
The identities of some masked men and who were said to have foiled chaos during the by-election was not known until the Minister of State in Charge of National Security, Bryan Acheampong disclosed in a Citi News interview that they were security personnel sanctioned by the state.
