Who ordered the military to invade parliament? - Prof Gyampo quizzes

Professor Ransford Gyampo, a Political Science lecturer at the University of Ghana is demanding to know who ordered the military to invade the chamber of parliament during a scuffle amongst the MPs.

According to him, there was no need for the military invasion as the marshals could have managed the situation.

Some armed military personnel stormed the chamber earlier today to restore order while chaos broke out over the election of Speaker of Parliament.

The heavily armed personnel were, however, chased out by some MPs who chanted the national anthem while some MPs were seen speaking to the military to move back.

In reacting to this, however, Professor Ransford Gyampo described the scene as democratically childish.

In a Facebook post, he said it was a shame to deploy military personnel into a civilian matters.

He, however, sought to know who ordered the military to go nothing in Parliament?

“So who ordered the military to go do nothing in Parliament? It was democratically childish and indiscretion on the part of whoever gave the order, regardless of the weakness of the clerk in ensuring order. The marshals could have managed the situation.”
