Prof Aning of KAIPTC with VP Bawumia, head of the Police Council
Professor Kwesi Aning of the Kwesi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Center (KAIPTC) has said the Ghana Police Council has failed Ghanaians and the entire Ghana Police Service.
According to him, the functions of the Police Council has now been reduced to promotion and dismissal council.
Under Act 350 the Police Council functions as an advisory body on appointments, welfare, discipline, selection, training, police-public relations and the adjudication of disciplinary appeals from serving officers.
Speaking on Good Evening Ghana on Thursday July 22, Professor Aning said: “The Committee goes beyond an individual but the Committee’s functions primarily as an oversight committee must ensure that it becomes a critical partner both to the Police administration and to the Police Council.
