A Police Officer named Sgt. Ebenezer Asiedu reportedly beat up some journalists of the Ghanaian Times last week Thursday.
Three journalists who were from a day's assignment were not spared but beaten up mercilessly by the Police Officer and nine other officers at Kinbu in Accra Central, for daring to confront Sgt. Asiedu for flouting road traffic regulations.
Sgt. Ebenezer Asiedu is said to have also committed a traffic offence when he recklessly rode his unregistered motorbike to hit a vehicle belonging to the Ghanaian Times.
Addressing the issue on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", a member of the Communications Team of the opposition party, Bernard Anim Piesie, slammed the Inspector General of Police (IGP), David Asante-Apeatu claiming he has failed to be on top of the nation's security.
Condemning the actions of the Police Officers for assaulting the journalists, Anim Piesie asked the IGP and the law enforcers in the country to wake up from the slumber and ensure they safeguard the people they are mandated to protect.
“Is the IGP asleep? The nation’s security is in jeopardy…If a civilian can take the laws into his own hands and do things to contravene the law, then it means the society is sick. The law enforcers must wake up!”, he blurted out.
Anim Piesie called on the hierarchy of the Ghana Police Service to mete out punishment to the offending Officers to serve as deterrent to others.

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ONE WINS POWER AT THE EXPENSE OF LIES. CITIZENS LIKE YOU MAKE THE COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE WHEN YOU REFUSE TO CALL SPADE A SPADE.
a part of the evil plan of the ndc creating artificial insecurity but unfortunately it is not working so this time around they are making baseless noise about insecurity. the hawk will create insecurity for you and your party, kwashia buuuului
This is the song of NDC according to the fake Elder Afosu Ampfo. NDC, should sing insecurity, insecurity, insecurity. IT will NOT wash! Ghanaians are now WIDE awake!
This IGP is completely clueless ! Are they sure he is still alive at all?
After planning to cause fear and panic in the country they've turned round to blame the IGP ! Has Snim piesie forgotten so soon that the late Prof. Mills once said he was not a police to effect arrest, what the IGP has to do is what the police has done by sending those NDC executives who plotted against Ghana by kidnapping and killing to make the country unsafe and thrybndc think by that they will get power, that is the vision of a kriminal organization being painted as a political arty. Anim Piesie and his NDC can find another place to relocate so they can feel safe without NDC in Ghana ,our Ghana will be safe prosper and progress. NDC will rot in opposition! America with over 100 people being killed a day even feel safe and don't complain so who cares if NDC feel unsafe by their own sword . Our president is focused and don't give a dime to NDC foolishness! It is only NDC that are crying in opposition and they will rot there for their ***barred word***!
Anim: May be you should ask your own party, because it seems your Chairman’s evil plan is working already. When NPP was in opposition we never experienced any diabolic plans such as your party is engaging in.
IT COULD BE MORE THAN SLEEPING, MAY BE HE HAS BEEN IN COMA.
