No Military Personnel will be Stationed at Polling Stations- GAF

Ghana Armed Forces (GAF)

The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has cautioned against the presence of its personnel at the various polling stations.

GAF has reaffirmed its dedication to ensuring the peaceful conduct of the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.

In a statement signed by Brigadier General E. Aggrey-Quashie, Director General of Public Relations, GAF outlined its role in maintaining national stability and underscored the importance of collaboration with the Ghana Police Service (GPS) during the electoral process.

To address public concerns regarding the role of the military in the upcoming elections, GAF emphasized;

“As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining national security and peace during this critical democratic exercise, GAF wishes to reiterate that no military personnel will be stationed at any polling station, GAF’s presence will be limited to standby support, with the primary responsibility for election security remaining with the Ghana Police Service (GPS). The military will only be deployed upon request by the GPS.”

This approach, GAF noted, aligns with best practices to ensure peaceful elections while avoiding any perception of intimidation or interference in the democratic process.

The Ghana Police Service will take the lead in securing polling stations nationwide, with GAF playing a supportive role when needed.

GAF reassured the public of its neutrality and commitment to safeguarding the stability of the nation.

“This collaborative approach ensures that the elections proceed smoothly and peacefully while maintaining law and order.”

In the interest of transparency, GAF has urged the public to report any unauthorized individuals posing as military.

Citizens are encouraged to immediately notify the nearest police station or call the designated toll-free numbers: 18555 or 080031131. The statement highlighted;

“In the spirit of transparency and to prevent any misunderstanding, we encourage the public to report any military personnel or individual(s) wearing military-pattern attire/accoutrements found at any polling station to the nearest police station.

This will ensure that appropriate action is taken against such individuals or groups in order to maintain security as well as the integrity of the election process.”
