President John Dramani Mahama recently met with outgoing service commanders to express his gratitude for their dedicated service to Ghana. The meeting was attended by Isaac Kofi Egyir, former Director-General of the Prisons Service, Julius A. Kuunuor, former Chief Fire Officer, and Kwame Asuah Takyi, former Comptroller-General of Immigration.
In a heartfelt message, President Mahama thanked the outgoing security chiefs for their leadership and commitment to Ghana’s security and development. He acknowledged their tireless efforts in serving the nation and expressed his appreciation for their contributions.
Notably absent from the meeting was Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, the former Inspector General of Police, whose removal has sparked controversy and varied reactions. President Mahama had initiated a significant overhaul of Ghana’s security sector leadership, appointing new heads for the Ghana Prisons Service, the Ghana National Fire Service, and the Ghana Immigration Service.
As President Mahama bids farewell to the outgoing security chiefs, he reaffirms his commitment to building a stronger and more secure Ghana. The meeting marks a new chapter in Ghana’s security sector, with the incoming service commanders poised to take on new challenges and responsibilities.
