Nana Akwasi Agyemang said:

"It was so wrong. It mustn’t happen to anyone, not to think of an officer who was officially assigned to take a video of the said event. I felt bad watching the video."

Nathaniel Adjei wrote:

"Unacceptable. A military officer, serving the nation, is treated like this. The abuse of power is shocking. We demand accountability from our leaders. Power is transient, but dignity is forever. The officer deserves justice."

Barnabas Nii Laryea said:

"The person you're working for won't ever touch or push an officer that way."

Agyemang Duah Kweku Jr. wrote:

"A leopard can never change its spots. Stan should continue with these amazing actions of his."
