A Retired Military Officer Col Festus Aboagye, has noted that Ghana's civil-military relations are in an unprecedented crisis.
This, he said, follows systemic militarisation under the Akufo-Addo administration from 2017-2024.
He has therefore made a number of recommendations in a policy brief analysing how military politicisation and civilian space encroachment threaten democratic governance and constitutional order.
The brief recommends immediate reforms restructuring military deployments by withdrawing military personnel from VIP protection duties, ending military involvement in commercialised security operations, and returning units, establishments and troops to core national defence functions.
