The Assistant Commissioner of Police, Dr. Benjamin Agordzo, has strongly criticized the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB), labeling them as very unprofessional.

ACP Benjamin Agordzo and eight others were charged with conspiring to commit high treason in 2021. The prosecution presented 13 witnesses, including Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) members. The High Court convicted six of the alleged coup plotters for counts of conspiracy to commit high treason.

The six were then sentenced to death by hanging after being found guilty. They include; Donya Kafui, Bright Alan Debrah, Johannes Zikpi, Esther Saan Dekuwine, Ali Solomon and Sylvester Akanpewon. Upon further investigations and court proceedings, the Court acquitted ACP Benjamin Agordzo, Colonel Samuel Kodzo Gameli, and one other junior military officer, Corporal Seidu Abubakar.

In an interview on GHOne TV with Lily Mohammed, Dr. Agordzo criticized the NIB as unprofessional, citing his experience as security personnel and a victim of NIB’s alleged mistreatment. He further disclosed that his book which is set to be released on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, provides a detailed account of his experiences with NIB and provides evidence to back his accusations.

“I would say that I am relating my experiences and based on my experience and also as a victim in your hands. Not just as a security Capo, maybe before this incident, I may not have said they were unprofessional. But having gone through their hands, having experienced them, having known what they did to me and what they are capable of doing, having known some of the things that they did, I could say with all evidence in this book that there are too many unprofessionals in that system.” he stated.

He continued, “And therefore my experience which I’ve documented is based on data. What I’ve written is based on data and the data is not an imagination. It is from court proceedings. It is from the disclosures that they have given us and based on what I have experienced with them.  That is what is constituted in this book.”
