Jubilation over new IGP reflects Dampare’s anti-corruption legacy – Prof Aning

Security Analyst Prof. Kwesi Aning has waded into the jubilant reactions of police officers following the appointment of COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno as the new Inspector General of Police (IGP), interpreting it as a reflection of the transformative leadership of former IGP Dr. George Akuffo Dampare.

During COP Yohuno’s visit to the Police Headquarters after his swearing-in, officers were seen celebrating, cheering his leadership, and welcoming him with enthusiasm.

Some even openly sprayed money on the newly appointed IGP, signaling their excitement and approval of his appointment.

However, amid the celebrations, some personnel criticized former IGP Dampare, labeling him a “tyrant” and a “dictator” while asserting that his removal had “freed” the police service.

Speaking in an interview on Channel One Newsroom on Friday, Prof. Aning praised Dampare for his commitment to discipline and professionalism, which he believes reshaped the Ghana Police Service.

“What it means is that this is an individual and an officer who has transformed the service and made sure that the corruption, the clannism, the network that allowed people to take the law into their own hand simply did not work again,” Prof. Aning stated.

He emphasized that Dampare’s leadership dismantled entrenched systems of corruption and favoritism within the service.

Prof. Aning further noted that standing up for discipline and professionalism often comes at a cost.

“When you stand up for discipline and for professionalism, you don’t make friends,” he remarked, highlighting the challenges faced by leaders who prioritize integrity over popularity.
