Security analyst, Adam Bonaa is not enthused about the timing of the appointment of a new Deputy Inspector General of Police.
According to him, the decision for President Akufo-Addo to select COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno for the position comes just a few months before the general election.
Jubilee House stated that the appointment follows the advice of the Police Council during its meeting today, where COP Yohuno's exceptional credentials and dedication to duty were acknowledged.
However, the security analyst insists that the proximity to the December polls is already brewing suspicion among critics.
Speaking on Newsnite, Mr Bonaa admitted that COP Yohuno is a fine and very disciplined police officer.
"The convention all over the world, you don't tamper with any security architecture usually six months to elections. Trump attempted to do that before the election and his advisors asked him not to do it, and he stopped" he said on Wednesday.
He also questioned the rationale behind the position accompanying the newly appointed Deputy Inspector-General of Police (IGP).
On the same show, Mr Agalga agreed adding that the specific position of 'Operations' lacks context and clarity.
“Is that to say that we're going to have yet another appointment in charge of administration or what, what I do and what the position has always been that we've had one slot reserved for Deputy Inspector General of Police?" he said.
