Security analyst, Emmanuel Sowatey has charged newly appointed acting Inspector General of Police, John Kudalor to be politically neutral ahead of the 2016 general elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going for general election and I think he should as much as possible try to be politically neutral,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”a1kk5HMp8d9cVcJp3Y9hz8ToC8g531M6″]Commissioner of Police John Kudalor was on Monday named acting IGP following the retirement of Mohammed Alhassan.<\/p>\n

The former IGP has been credited with several reforms within the service, particularly, Police visibility in communities.<\/p>\n

The security analyst who underscored the need for a continuation of the reforms however charged the new IGP to prioritize the general elections.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the Citi Breakfast Show<\/strong>, Emmanuel Sowatey also urged the President to stop the periodic change of IGPs in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know whether he [John Kudalor] will be there till December next year because I\u2019m not too sure that he will be there and that is the problem. For instance run-up to the election, two or three months to the election and a new IGP is brought then it means that within a year we would have had two IGPs. And for me that is what concerns me,\u201d he lamented.<\/p>\n
