The Ghana Police Service has taken decisive action against three police officers, Inspector Michael Addo, G/CONST. Eric Boakye, and G/CONST. Michael Gyan, interdicting them and relieving them of their suties with immediate effect.
This action follows their alleged failure to perform their duty professionally during a disruption of the ongoing Limited Voter Registration Exercise at the Electoral Commission Office in Adugyama, Ashanti Region.
Reports indicate that chaos erupted at the Electoral Commission Office when a group of individuals, purportedly from the Ahwerewam galamsey sites, stormed the premises wielding guns and cutlasses.
Eyewitnesses described scenes of confusion and fear as the attackers confronted registration officials and prospective voters, causing widespread disruption and alarm.
In the aftermath of the incident, questions were raised about the response of law enforcement personnel present at the scene. Allegations of inaction and negligence on the part of the interdicted officers have prompted swift disciplinary action by the Ghana Police Service.
