The Inspector General of Police John Kudalor has transferred 16 police chiefs with immediate effect.
The changes have been viewed by many as a surprise as the Commander of the Greater Accra regional Police COP George Akuffo Dampare who was appointed six months ago is headed to the Ghana Police Command and Staff College at Winneba. He hands over to ACP Timothy Donga Yoosa.
Central Regional Police Commander DCOP Yaagy Akuribah goes to the Western Region as the new Commander.
DCOP David Nenyi Ampah Bennin of the Police Intelligence and Professional Standard Bureau however swaps places with DCOP Osabarima Oware Asare Pinkro II who was Director General in charge of Special Duties.
The Volta regional commander DCOP Peterkin Yentumi Gyinae replaces the Eastern regional Police commander DCOP Angwubutoge Awuni who passed away on March 14, 2016.
