Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare, a United States-based legal practitioner and accounting professor, popularly known on Facebook as Kwaku Azar, has urged Ghanaians, especially security analysts to stop ridiculing weapons used by suspects who attempted coup plot on Ghana’s presidency.
To Professor Asare, the matter is a serious one which needs thorough probe devoid of any politics.
“You don’t need stock of arms to stage a coup. The discussion must go beyond ridiculing weapons to be used by persons arrested,” he said in an interview on Asempa FM’s Ekosi Sen show, Tuesday.

“If left for me alone, I would say the government security even makes sense more than these security analysts. They are just misleading us,” he said.
Government, he noted, must work very hard to ensure people have a better life, adding that the worst civilian government is better than the best military government so it is better Ghanaians are careful over this coup attempt.
