Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem Wednesday, National Democratic Congress (NDC)’s Greater Accra Regional Secretary, Anthony Nukpenu, is convinced the IGP is “clueless” about the security situation in the country.

In his view, the appointment of David Asante-Apeatu opened the flood gate for criminals, vigilante groups and other forms atrocities in the country.
“IGP is a clueless police officer because he is sleeping on the job; he has refused to protect his own policemen and our lives as citizens are in danger”, he bemoaned.

Anthony Nukpenu also accused the police patrol team of rather extorting monies from residents instead of providing security for them.

“We cannot leave in a country where we have lazy people in uniform. Police patrol teams are most corrupt; they go round and take money from people instead of ensuring security”, he added.
