The Ghana Police Service has warned that it will soon impose security detail on flag bearers of the various political parties who have so far delayed in choosing from the army of police personnel who they could trust to protect them.

The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Mr. John Kudalor, who made this known at a meeting  held with the chairpersons and general secretaries of the various political parties said the move forms part of security arrangements being initiated to ensure a peaceful electioneering process.

He indicated that party executives were allowed to make inputs to decide the kind of security details they would want to be assigned by the Police.

However, at an IEA Forum in Accra on Wednesday,  the police noted that several weeks after that said meeting, the political parties have failed to take advantage of the offer.

Director of Operations of the police Dr Benjamin Agbodzor warned that the police will impose personnel on the various flagbearers at the end of May if political parties refuse to choose the kind of security detail they wanted.

"In the past, we have had some of them making choices that have caused us to transfer some of them from one region to the other. And we are ready to do that one more time, because this is your personal detail and you must have confidence in the one you are working with.

"We are still waiting for those names and no political party has submitted names to us yet. Which means that at a point in time, maybe from 15th May onwards, we may begin to impose, and that is not what we want to do. Please I'm using this forum to appeal to all political parties to give us the names of persons they want, and we will deal with that," he added.

The security arrangement follows the controversy which surrounded the three ex-South African police officers who were brought in by the NPP to train the security detail of the flagbearer of the party.

The three were subsequently deported after they were arrested by the BNI and charged with conspiracy to commit crime and unlawful training.
