Former General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has disclosed that the Inspector General of Police (IGP) and the Head of the Public Affairs Directorate of the Ghana Police Service would be dismissed for their involvement in active politics.
According to Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, the two have demonstrated that have been working for the National democratic Congress (NDC) and “therefore must go”.
“We will get rid of Supt. Cephas Arthur who is the Police PRO and the IGP will be shown the exit because they have been acting in the interest of the NDC”.
“…As for that PRO, the least said about him the better. Is he not the one who has been snitching on Kwesi Ofori? We will see,” he said on UTV’s Adekye Nsroma.
Supt. Cephas Arthur seems to be in the bad books of the NPP and this manifested when he alleged that guards at President Akufo-Addo’s private residence threatened the life of a police personnel.
In the words of Supt. Arthur, a bodyguard of the then flagbearer of the NPP pointed a gun at a police officer during the melee that ensued in front of Nana Akufo-Addo’s house in the heat of the campaigns leading up to election 2016.
Even though many leading members of the NPP condemned the Police Spokesperson none suggested he was working for the NDC but Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie claims he has always been “unprofessional” in the discharge of his duties and “must go”.

It's clear Cephas Arthur is the most use.less Police PRO I have ever witness. So unprofessional and a big liar on top. He lies all the time. Was he not the one who run away during the Police Operation at Agyei-Kojo? Point on Sir John. Police must be professional and trusted.Not Cephas Arthur. What became of the JB Danquah's killers?
DONT DECEIVE YOURSELVES, THE BEST THEY CAN DO IS TO TRANSFER THEM, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.YOU CAN RETIRE THE IGP ,ARMY COMMANDERS ETC. ALL THAT IS NORMAL AND DONE ALL OVER THE WORLD.CEPHAS CAN ONLY BE TRANSFERRED IF U DONT LIKE HIM
Sir Sir Sir, aaaba are you the one to make this public, let the appropriate quarters deal with it, some of you are too loud, please, we didn't vote u as our president,
THE POLICE MUST BE NON PARTISAN, BUT SIR JOHN AND KEN AGYAPONG MUST ALLOW THE APPROPRIATE AUTHORITY FOLLOW THE DUE PROCESS TO CHANGE THE SITUATION. SUCH TALKS ARE NOT HELPFUL
Its not news, sack everyone to employ your people. What is happening is not different from what we witnessed under kufour administration
ITS CHARACTERS LIKE SIR JOHN , KENNEDY AGYEPONG AND HOPESON ADOYE WHO MAKE LEADERS UNPOPULAR.PRES NANA ADDO SHOULD WATCH SUCH PEOPLE AND HAVE SERIOUS TALK WITH THEM ABOUT THEIR PUBLIC UTTERANCES.THEY SHOULD KNOW THAT THERE ARE FLOATING VOTERS IN GHANA WHO ACTUALLY DECIDE WINNER OF ELECTIONS IN GHANA SO IT SHOULD NOT ALWAYS BE ABOUT NPP/NDC.
The current IGP is clearly wearing political party colours. 1. Where is the report on the investigations on the alleged ammunition at the NPP Headquarters? 2.When he was Director of Operations, he behave unprofessionally in the crowd control of Let My Vote Count Alliance protesters resulting in one person losing his eye.he former President ordered an investigation what has happened? 3.When President Akufo Addo's personal residence was put under the throwing of stones by NDC supporters. What did he do? 4.Why has the Ghana Police Service. 5.He is currently over 60 years. He finished his Secondary Education 'O' Level about 43 years ago at Aggrey Memorial College.How old was he when he completed his O Levels. Master talk true.
very very very irresponsible statement. You are making NPP look and sound bad. if they have to go, I see nothing wrong about it. But do you have to announce it before? Do not let Nana Addo look bad
Cephas Arthur has always been a thorn in the flesh of NPP and must be shown the exit, period.
Why not? if he is NDC gem why must he say?
