The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Christian Tetteh Yohuno, welcomed the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Major General William Agyapong, to the National Police Headquarters with a Guard of Honour ceremony on April 14, 2025. This marks Major General Agyapong’s first visit to the Police Headquarters in his capacity as CDS.
During their meeting, both leaders reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening inter-agency collaboration to address the country’s security needs. Key areas of focus include enhancing cooperation to tackle security challenges, such as the situation in Bawku.
This development underscores the Ghana Armed Forces’ and Ghana Police Service’s joint efforts to ensure national security and stability. The two security agencies have been working together on various initiatives, including “Operation Halt” aimed at combating illegal mining activities. By partnering with small-scale miners, the government aims to identify and expose illegal operators, enabling more efficient enforcement of laws and regulations in affected areas.
