WIRE — The Constitution is the supreme law of Ghana. All Security Agencies with powers of arrest – Ghana Police Service, Bureau of National Investigations (BNI), Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), National Security, and Ghana Immigration Service – are set up by statute subject to the provisions of the Constitution. As such, all these institutions are required to operate within the limits of the provisions of the Constitution.
