Two individuals dressed like police officers and voted in the ongoing NPP Constituency Executive elections.
A footage of one of the suspects voting today sparked anger on social media.
A statement issued by the police indicated that the two fake police men would be screened and process before court for prosecution.
Security analysts have described the situation as unsurprised.
“If you are a national security operative, the service regulation you are not supposed to do party politics. You are not to be seen voting at their so-called elections, campaigning and what have you.
“So it’s worrying seeing someone like that and it speaks directly to some of the things we have seen at Ayawaso West Wuogon and other locations where security officers have been involved in brutalities. Quite worrying but I am not surprised,” Adams Bona, a Security Analyst told Media in Accra.
The ongoing nation-wide constituency election of the NPP has been characterized with some brutalities across the country.
