In a significant shake-up of Ghana’s security leadership, President John Dramani Mahama has appointed Commissioner of Police (COP) Christian Tetteh Yohuno as the new Inspector General of Police (IGP), replacing Dr. George Akuffo Dampare.

The appointment, which took effect on March 13, 2025, was made in accordance with Articles 91 and 202 of the 1992 Constitution and in consultation with the Council of State. The decision was confirmed in a statement issued by the Minister of Government Communication, Felix Kwakye Ofosu.

The move has sparked mixed reactions across the country, with supporters of COP Yohuno celebrating his appointment, while others question the rationale behind Dampare’s removal. Yohuno, a seasoned police officer, is expected to implement key reforms to strengthen law enforcement and national security.

With rising concerns about crime and police professionalism, all eyes are now on the new IGP to see how he will handle security challenges in the country.

What do you think about this appointment? Will COP Yohuno bring positive change?
