Political Scientist, Dr Isaac Brako has backed the deployment of armed military personnel into the Parliamentary chamber after the chaotic scenes that characterised the election of the new speaker, Alban Bagbin.
According to him, it was obvious the Members of Parliament had no regard for the Police personnel who tried everything to calm tension therefore it was necessary the military came in.
He shared his thoughts in an interview with Samuel Eshun, host of the Happy Morning Show aired one.TV Ghana and Happy 98.9 FM.
“From the footages we’ve all seen, you can see the Police and the Marshals were not able to separate MPs engaged scuffles on the floor of Parliament. They did not even regard the police who were brought in to intervene in the situation.
“You don’t wait for violence to happen before you say had I known. But you take the actions now to prevent any harm. Had I known would’ve been bad and that is why the military intervened”, he added.
