George Akuffo Dampare has been removed from his role as IGP
COP George Alex Mensah (rtd) has made some scathing comments about the former Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, calling him the ‘worst IGP ever.’
He made the comment during an interview with Adom FM.
Mensah criticised Dampare’s administration for prioritising social media appearances over actual groundwork, giving him a 25% performance rating.
He faulted Dampare’s leadership style, stating that he failed to establish a good working relationship with his subordinates.
This criticism is echoed by a security analyst, Paul Boateng.
“He is not very accessible and only does eye servicing instead of the real job on the ground,” Boateng stated.
Franklin Cudjoe of IMANI Africa also appreciated the efforts of Dampare, suggesting that he may have been misunderstood.
Cudjoe also questioned COP George Mensah’s criticism of Dampare as having been a ‘social media IGP,’ seeking clarification on what he meant by this label.
He encouraged the new IGP, COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno, to build upon the good works of Dampare, ultimately serving the nation’s best interest.
