President has officially dismissed Inspector General of Police (IGP) George Akuffo Dampare from his position and appointed COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno as his successor.

As his tenure comes to an end, Dampare joins a distinguished group of former Inspectors General of Police who have had the privilege of serving in that capacity.

The role of the IGP is a significant responsibility, requiring individuals appointed to the position to oversee and manage the operations and administration of the entire police force.

With the appointment of COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno, who is expected to bring fresh ideas to improve the police force, GhanaWeb takes a look at the former IGPs who have served under the Fourth Republic.
