Physical Training Instructor Twumasi Barimah, popularly known as the Commander General of the Ghana Armed Forces, has criticised Communications Minister Samuel Nartey George over his handling of a confrontation with a military officer in the Ningo-Prampram Constituency. Mr Barimah said the minister, who is also the Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, should have sought clarification about the military operation before publicly criticising the officer involved. He also questioned the minister's decision to disclose the officer's service number, arguing that his comments could incite residents against military personnel. Addressing the minister, Mr Barimah said his public remarks suggested that he had allowed his emotions to influence his response to the incident.
