GAF must apologise over Ashaiman brutalities - Political scientist

Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, he bemoaned that the act by the military will taint Ghana’s democratic portfolio.

“My pain is that this is going to go into the US State Department report on human rights and it is going to affect our democratic credentials.

“I was surprised that this ugly spectacle we saw in Ashaiman never featured in the President’s state of Nations address

“Democracy has dipped by one point because people including himself have fought for democracy in this country

So for him, for something of this magnitude to happen and the President will just close his eye to it I find it very unfortunate and I think we deserve something better

“I’m not surprised because when the eight people were killed in the last election, and then the President was pronounced as the winner of that election, the President shied away in his acceptance speech

“He shied away and never commented on that and it’s becoming consistent and I’m not happy that I have a president who has stood all his life worked as a human rights supporter and we’re seeing aberrations of this nature and the president will not talk about that,” he lamented.
