The Special Forces of the Ghana Armed Forces will have no role to play whatsoever in Friday�s elections or any other election in Ghana, Director of Public Affairs of the Ghana Armed Forces has confirmed to XYZ News. Col Atintande M�Bawini says the Special Forces only exist to undertake very special operations which require their specially given skills. Former President Kufuor recently raised concerns about a possible misuse of the Special Forces in Friday�s election. But Col Atintande M�Bawini tells XYZ News in an interview that the Special Forces are not for elections. "The Special Forces are not forces for elections, they are individual soldiers who have special skills, just in case we need them for certain roles," he said.
