  Stop that foolish talk of anywhere is Ghana. There are more crimes in Kumasi today because the city is overpopulated with non-Ashantis. The only way to combat this problem is to allow this guy who knows the ins and outs of the city he was born and grew up in to effect his duties responsibly. That order from above nonsense by the NDC must stop.

  How can Mr Kudalor unprofessionally maim innocent demonstrators to appease politicians because he wanted the IGP position and turn round and say I can now do a professional job? Blame Kudalor because he has sold out the police force! Kofi Boakye is not going to stick his neck out to be disgraced by his unprofessional head.

  I would say that may God protect the police and law enforcement from the abuse by the ILLUMINATI agents in politics.
  
  The ILLUMINATI network is aggressively politicizing the work of the police in deploying its NEW WORLD ORDER communist agenda to silence the public and destroy what they started as democracy.
  
  Some politicians have joined the network of the occult ILLUMINATI and are manipulating the world with insecurity, lack of peace, injustice, threats, lack of freedom, poverty for Africa, lack of truth, fear, lack of love, lack of trust, Black struggles, low life expectancy for Africa, the use of directed energy weapons, laser weapons and others to covert kill the innocent to reduce population.
  
  It is sand that once they are in government the can easily use the armed forces of the government; police, military and other law enforcement or CIA or gangs to pursue their evil mission because they would transfer or find ways to terminated the work of the public official by conspiracy and propaganda. It is is a global that is changing the world in negative and undesirable fashion.
  
  People blame the police while the police is not the root cause but some corrupt politicians who may terminate them if they refuse to undertake their orders. This is the issue because they police is employed to work the government and cannot refuse order to perform duty, even though some of them may be aware of the conspiracy they are engage in but may have limited options in some cases. It is time to pray against the network of occult ILLUMINATI criminals. They are the cause of the world problems and they hate honest people, so they would not allow any honest person to fill higher political positions. I caution all by divine authority.
  
  I am talking about the ILLUMINATI and not America because I am NOT an enemy and most Americans do even know about these kinds of manipulations by the ILLUMINATI.

  Dr. Aninig, please do not say what you do not know, and stop muddling the waters.No politician can cause Mr. Kofi Boakye to be removed from the Ashanti region. I know for a fact that only three (3) personalities can cause his transfer:The Asantehene, Otumfour Osei Tutu 11, The President, Mr. John Dramani Mahama & Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr. John Kudalour. All the personalities mentioned above SHALL not ask for the transfer of DCOP Kofi Boakye knowing very well his good work in the Region. The Asantehene has great persuasive powers in the Ashanti Region and Ghana in general, so even if anyone deciders to transfer this able police officer from the region and Nana does not agree, it won't work!

  Kofi Boakye is an experience policeman he has survived under Npp and NDC in the past,it's just a repeated dose,what he needs to do is concentrate on regular police duties,I don't think anybody ll fight him for dealing with arm robbers or intercepting arms in general.Its only the political cases that,partie people from both NDC and Npp ll descend heavily on him anytime he turned the heat towards them,sometimes the police over act,example the case involving the Npp regional chairman could've been handled more professionally without detention but Kofi Boakye wanted to teach the man where power lays by locking him up when he knew it was a bailable offence.If you want to show the man naked power that offence was a bad one to use.Untill the police themselfs push for their own independence there no way a policeman ll be save in the current state of events,whatever you do people can read meanings into it because your colleague ll always give you out,The IGP position should not be an appointed one by the president,all regional police commanders must not be appointed by the IGP,they should go through some voting of a sort by the judicial service and the police.If we don't free our police from polititians there no way this country can fight crimes or move forward,the Agogo Fulani matter exposed the weakness of Kofi Boakye because the cattle there is own by polititians,people were being killed on daily bases and his interest was to arrest an mp who was calling on the youth to defend themselfs against the Fulanis,what is a cow to the lives of humans?.Kofi Boakye should focus on the job gether informations for future reforms and stop harassing DV plates users because car dealers ve to sell their cars,it's the only business government takes full taxes before the vehicles come our,they even confiscate the car after 60 days and give it to party members for free.

  A policeman's action should speaks louder than his words. But in the case of Kofi Boakye, courageous as he seems, he has needlessly courted the attention of politicians hoping to gain from it, unfortunately the same politicians have exploited this vulnerability of his. When journalists start trumpeting the 'good' works of a particular policemen at the least opportunity, then be careful. Some times it can get you out of trouble such as in the FV Benjamin Cocaine case. Other times it brings you trouble, when you fail to deliver to the standard you have been held. Too much personal ambition has been the bane of KB. That type of ambition to gain advantage over those legitimately ahead of you has gained him two promotions and has also served as a disincentive when he was marked down for dismissal for his involvement in the MV Benjamin case. The best advice for Kofi Boakye is to stop trying to catch the eyes of the powers that be, concentrate on your professional work whether or not you become IGP. Only one person becomes an IGP at a time, and so many factors are taken into consideration, not least among them reliability and ability to withstand influence of any kind. These two qualities seem to be absent in Kofi Boakye, despite the energetic posture.

  the 1992 constitution has created enough grounds for most institutions in Ghana to be unproductive, why should the president be the one to appoint the IGP. when u give the president such powers he automatically controls the police and can hider the police from carrying out their duties. In the case of Ghana where 99% of our polictians are corrupt, it just like putting cassava in red oil, somethings l fell sad for the police administration because their hands are so thight, in Uk, the prime minister does not appoint the heard of the police, that is why the police arrested the son of the prime minister when he was seen drinking under age.As a nation we must be serious with our security and not play politics with it. The police force must be free from political interference!!!!

  Sometimes our so-called experts are just as stupid as moose. How can this Aning man such a sweeping generalization (which could be trouble) and then cherry-pick why Kofi Boakye knows the armed-rubbers and will not go after them. This is the stupid and childish inference that Aning has drawn.
  
  Kofi Boakye, irrespective of whether there is "political-fear" in his work as Regional Police Command, must effect the arrest of those armed robber, if indeed he knows them (as Aning is alluding to but is refusing to act).
  
  I believe such unguided, careless, and sweeping statements from public figures and so-called experts must be be discouraged. If the Police Service effects administrative policies, so be it. Stop reading politics into it.
  
  Are we trying to tie the hands of the IGP and his able lieutenants?
  
  I know without any doubt that if Kofi Boakye knows where the armed robbers are, he will strike and get them arrested. Picking the armed robbery cases in the Ashanti region as evidence of the police fearing their bosses is just an utter stupidity.

  This is exactly what happenned years back resulting in the rage of Ghanaians seeking for Justice resulting in the 1979 coup led by J.J Rawlings. But some Ghanaians are so stubborn and seemed not to have learned from history. Ordinary Ghanaians are so angry and fed up with crimes that are going-on to the point of taking the law into their own hands resulting in lynchings and mob justice as they claim that there is no justice with the police. Other individuals have used their vehicles to hit armed robbers on motorcycles, others chasing them with their private vehicles to cause their arrest. The other day the Narcotics boss came out to say that politicians are behind the increase use of hard drugs in Ghana. How can anyone want a hard working man like DCOP Boakye out of office or out of Kumasi? Has Ghana degenerated so much that we don't want the righteous in the land? Perhaps if these politicians and their loved ones become the target of armed robbers they will think twice.
