Dampare’s leadership instilled order and discipline – Nana Yaw Akwada

Dr Nana Yaw Akwada, Executive Director and Chief of Party of the Bureau of Public Safety, has praised the leadership of Dr George Akuffo Dampare during his tenure as Inspector General of the Ghana Police Service (IGP).

According to Dr Akwada in a statement issued on Saturday March 15, Dampare’s leadership brought a sense of order, discipline, and duty toward citizens, which earned him widespread admiration from the public, though not necessarily from all members of the police service.

“There is no doubt that during his tenure, police officers demonstrated greater thoughtfulness in their actions before taking decisive steps,” Dr. Akwada stated, emphasising the positive impact of Dampare’s leadership on the police force’s approach to decision-making.

However, Dr Akwada expressed concern over the celebrations following Dampare’s anticipated removal, cautioning that this should not lead to the erosion of the public confidence he built in the police leadership.

He urged stakeholders to preserve the gains made under Dampare’s tenure.

Dr Akwada also commented on Dampare’s successor, COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno, describing him as a well-regarded and widely supported leader.

Nevertheless, he stressed that effective leadership in public service requires more than popularity, particularly in Ghana’s context.
