He attributed the move to the commander on duty losing control of his men in handling the crowd. "When you look at the video making rounds, you will realize that there was a water van which wasn’t used, rather they resorted to firing live ammunition. That is unwarranted and disproportional,” he said in an interview with GhanaWeb’s Amos Ekow Coffie. “When protestors go the extra mile to become an extreme threat to the safety of the security personnel and innocent people around, that’s when the live bullets are used sometimes, but not in these circumstances. He is also calling for a thorough investigation to be carried out to ascertain what informed the decision to use live bullets to disperse the crowd.
