Who are the police? They should be careful. USA deployed their military when election issues got complicated. Dampare be careful we want a stable country after the elections so don't try this impossible experiment. People get possessed doing strange things and your police force including yourself wont be safe and when you then call on the the military they wont mind you. Show us in the constitution where military in Ghana wont deploy during elections or because you are greedy for all the security budget for the elections. We may belief you if you withdraw the military from Bawku and contain the situation without the military. When the youth were beating your police men was it not the military that went to safe them. Please don't bring confusion Mr Dampare. This election is straight forward the winner will win and the loser will lose and there wont be I wont agree because everyone will see it clear

Mawuvi, can you please tell Ghanaians where in the Constitution that says, military should be deployed during elections in Ghana, or you don't understand the duties of internal and external security service, I believe you are a military man, but you lack basic knowledge of ur duties as a military officer, the military are to be on standby and if situation becomes out of hand that, the police alone at that particular point cannot control it, then they call in the military to come and help restore calm. You are here comparing America elections to Ghana elections, did you in any way hear that, the US military deployed to election, if that is true, unprofessionally brutalizing civilians who are exercising the rights?

If the military get involved what will police do? Try your stupidity, the military will beat you like they way beat their children. Nonsense.

Yes they would rather be involved in brutalisation. They are going to be used for deniable operations of violent against the citizens. We shall see

I don't think the "bribe taking" policemen can handle security for the elections. The military is definitely needed.

VERY GOOD NEWS IN A LONG TIME

I had been vocal that the Army shouldn't be involved in the 2024 elections. I therefore greet this news with much excitement.

Using the Ghana Army for such duties, even guiding galamsey sites, Operation Vanguard, as security personnel for civilians, e.g., the EC, by the Akufo Addo regime is one huge bastardisation of the military.

That is precisely what we inherited from the Brits until bogus democrat Akufo Addo came along. . In the grand scheme of things, I think we should take a cue from Indonesia and ban all military and police personnel from voting in all political elections. It seems to work very well for them.

The military is part of law enforcement. They should be part of ensuring that we have a fair and peaceful election. The police alone might be stretched too thin. Anyway, if push comes to shove, they military will be commanded to come out of the barracks. That will be outside Dampare's control. WE LIVE TO SEE.

"The police cannot handle this situation alone and require the assistance of the military. The police lack discipline, and despite the large number of police officers in Ghana, many of them only wear the uniform. Ghanaians tend to have more respect for and adhere better to the military than the police."

Every professional soldier will accept this without qualms. Only those with parochial interest will make noise about it. Prompto, police is responsible for internal security and it should remain so
