COP Yohuno Named New IGP for Ghana Police

A top police leadership shake-up just landed Christian Tetteh Yohuno as Ghana's new Inspector-General of Police. He's taking over from Dr. George Akuffo Dampare after four incredible decades of law enforcement experience.

The West Africa Action Network on Small Arms welcomed Yohuno and praised his deep background in policing and national security. They're betting he'll help push through critical reforms, especially around controlling small arms across the country.

Yohuno isn't some newcomer to high-stakes leadership. He's been a powerhouse in the police service since 1985, managing everything from intelligence operations to regional security. His international peacekeeping missions in Bosnia and East Timor showcase his global security chops.

Before stepping into the top job, he ran the Police Intelligence Directorate and was the first to lead key investigations into major crime cases. He's snagged awards like the Best Recruit and a State Honour for fighting armed robbery. With his track record, stakeholders are pumped about what he'll bring to Ghana's law enforcement scene.
