Kan Dapaah ‘Chief Architect’ of La Bawaleshie Violence — Bryan Acheampong suggests

Minister of Agriculture Designate Bryan Acheampong has suggested Minister of National Security Albert Kan Dapaah should be held responsible for the Violence at the Ayawaso West Wuogon by election at the LA Bawaleshie.

Mr. Acheampong appearing before the parliamentary vetting committee said he has been unjustifiably held liable for something that should rather end at the doorstep of the Minister of National Security and that he knows nothing about the incident.

Bryan Acheampong gave the chain of command and operations that day to justify his statement to the committee.

“Mr Chairman, Ayawaso has been my waterloo. It is something that, in the performance of the duty of the state, an individual has been unjustifiably held liable for something that, that individual knows nothing about,” he said. 

“….I must add that the Ayawaso violence is a blot on our democracy, we pray that it doesn’t happen again. I sympathise with those who were wounded on that day.” He added.

“So, if the findings were that the people were sent to Ayawaso under the command of a police officer, and the Police Officer was under the command of the Director of Operations, and the Director of Operations was at the command of the Minister of State at the Ministry of National Security and the Minister of State was at the command of a Minister of National Security…… and so on and so forth, where does it end?” Mr Acheampong questioned. 

“And why would they end it at my doorstep? Not being part of the operation, not being part of the command on that day. No evidence was given to that…Mr Chairman, I did not authorise that operation. And that is why it was easy for the (Government) White Paper to say that they reject the recommendations because it is without basis”. 
” He added.

Having read the 500-page report of the Ayawaso West Wuogon Commission of Enquiry, Bryan Acheampong said his name was not mentioned anywhere as having done anything wrong. 

“The Commission recommends that Mr Bryan Acheampong be reprimanded for his ultimate responsibility as Minister in authorising an operation of that character on a day of election in a built up area,” the nominee said. 

“Mr Chairman, even in the unlikely event that I was the Minister of State and authorised that operation, what I’m being asked to be reprimanded for is not a crime”.he explained
