The Inspector-General of Police Dr. George Akuffo Dampare has assured Ghanaians that the Service was prepared to listen to the concerns of citizens to help transform the service into a world-class one.
In his Christmas message to Ghanaians the IGP said “We wish to assure you once again that, as leaders of the Service, we are available to listen to your concerns and ideas on how to transform the Service into a world-class institution and the most respected organisation in Ghana.”
He assured Ghanaians that the Service was prepared to deal with officers who misconduct themselves.
He further advised officers to desist from conduct that will make the public lose trust in the service.
“It is my hope that the few officers who are engaged in acts of misconduct and unprofessionalism that make the public look down on us and overlook all our patriotic sacrifices, shall desist from these practices in the new year and beyond, for us to regain the trust, confidence and respect of the public.”
