A member of the security detail of the flag bearer of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) “pointed a gun” at the Commander of the Anti-Terrorism unit of the Ghana Police Service during Sunday’s clashes between supporters of the NPP and the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Director of Communications of the Police, Superintendent Cephas Arthur has said.
“After pointing the gun at him, he pointed it in the air and gave a warning shot and then dropped it down again and pointed it at him.
“But for the exercise of maximum restraint and professionalism displayed by the police, we would have heard a different story today,” Supt Arthur told Prince Minkah on Class91.3FM’s Executive Breakfast Show on Monday, 14 November.
He said so far no one has been arrested in connection with the clashes which got sparked after supporters of both parties converged on the vicinity of Mr Akufo-Addo’s Nima residence during their respective Keep Fit activities.
Both parties are accusing each other of starting the provocation.

That Commander should thank his God he is still alive now. Nana Addo's Security should have shot into his head. what were the NDC hooligans doing at Nana Addo's residence? did the NDC hooligans have the police permit to embark on that so called procession? if yes, was Nana Addo's residence part of their root for their so called procession? you think you can ***barred word*** Ghanaians everyday? change is coming and their earlier this sinks into your head the better for you Cephas whoever you call yourself.
Mr Vega's Arthur's rendition here is just incredibly ridiculous. At what point was the gun pointed at your office? When did the NDC supporters start massing up at the place? Did they notify the police before congregation there? From Nana Add-ons residence to the Nina police station is just a stone throw, how long did it take your team to respond to the chaos? Are you telling Ghanaians that both the NDC and NPP supporters got to the place at the same time and started the confrontation? Come on behave like a professional, at least and spare us you biases
This cephas Arthur and his nose like a kenkey that has been stepped on,is always telling lies on radio.your time shall pass
THE QUESTION IS WHY SHOULD THE NDC SUPPORTERS GO TO THE HOUSE OF NANA ADDO...IS A CALCULATED THING TO PAINT NANA AS A VIOLENT MAN..BUT THEY WILL NOT SUCCEED..CHANGE IS COMING..NOTHING CAN PREVENT THE WIND OF CHANGE THAT IS BLOWING....
Cephas Arthur using the same strategy as used by FBI's James Comey! It won't wash!
Do the police think we're all ***barred word*** like them? The most important question is what were the NDC guys doing in front of Nana Addo residence? No one wld attack anyone just marching past a house! Shd hv actually shot him not only pointed at him.
Cephas Arthur and lies! Don't complain when you are transferred to Hamile under the Nana Addo government. How can you insult our intelligence like that? Did they have police permit to congregate near Nana's property? Do you deny that those misfits actually threw stones into Nana Addo's residence? Why would the guard point a gun at the police when their attackers were going on rampage? Stop these li@es and do proper investigations. It won't be like this forever!
