He said, the posture by the police compounds the insecurity of the country and creates fear and panic among the citizens. Speaking on JoyNews on Saturday, July 3, Prof Aning said, “when the security services and their political masters refuse to listen and to engage; that is why Wa, Ejura and Sene military brutalities have happened. Prof Aning said security personnel must show a duty of care and be measured in their actions when dealing with civilians. He, therefore, called for an overhaul of the institutional culture and training of the Ghana Armed Forces. Prof Aning stated that in a democratic dispensation, civil democratic control, there must be an engagement that “seeks to build institutions that speak to or respond to the needs and the changing dynamics of the communities that they serve.”
