The Presidency has dismissed as erroneous suggestions that the President wants to restructure the hierarchy of the Ghana Armed Forces so that the government might utilise soldiers to brutalise residents during the 2024 elections.
According to a statement made and signed by the Presidency’s Director of Communications, Eugene Arhin, the Presidency does not intend to make any politically motivated modifications, as stated by some Ghanaians on social media.
The statement was issued in reaction to social media accusations that President Akufo-Addo met with Armed Forces leadership on January 2 before of the claimed politically motivated reshuffle.
“At these meetings, the Heads of Security agencies call on the President to offer him their best wishes for the coming year, with the President also using the opportunity to express his appreciation to them for their continued commitment to safeguarding the peace and stability of the nation.”
Contrary to the allegations made in the publication on social media, no such discussions about changes to the hierarchy of the Armed Forces were held during the meeting.
It is imperative to note that a change in the leadership of the Armed Forces is embarked upon by the President in accordance with the Constitution and well-established conventions, devoid of any political considerations. Any future change made in this regard will not be a new phenomenon that should warrant unfounded speculations,” the statement added.
