Minister for Defence, Dr Edward Omane Boamah, has dismissed allegations by the New Patriotic Party's 'mighty' Minority in Parliament that the government is unjustly removing senior military officers, describing the claims as out of touch and lacking merit.
In a Facebook post on Thursday, the minister responded sharply to concerns raised by the Minority, led by Alexander Afenyo-Markin, during a press conference in Accra.
The minority had alleged that the dismissal of certain military generals was politically motivated and posed a threat to the professionalism of the Ghana Armed Forces.
Dr Boamah, however, called on the Minority to "get serious" and respect established military protocols.
