In a rare show of support since IGP John Kudalor’s decision, Nana Ato Dadzie said he would have done same to protect his men, re-group and re-strategise to quell the violence by the agitating residents. However, presenting his take on the matter on news analysis programme, Newsfile, Ato Dadzie said the so called security experts are criticizing the IGP unfairly. “if I were the IGP I would have ordered my men ‘pull out, don’t die’,” he told show host, Samson Anyenini. Meanwhile, the IGP has rescinded his decision and has ordered even more personnel to the Eastern Region town.
