The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Christian Tetteh Yohuno, has promoted seven officers from the Tema Regional Police Command in recognition of their bravery and swift action during a recent anti-robbery operation in Tema.
The promotions were announced following the officers’ prompt response to an armed robbery attack on a mobile money (MoMo) vendor at Tema Community 5.
The operation resulted in the shooting of two suspected robbers, with police retrieving a firearm, ammunition, and other exhibits from the scene.
The officers elevated to their next ranks are: Chief Inspector Enoch Nartey Nuer, Inspector Gershon Dekpey, Inspector Prince Asante, Sergeant Lukman Mohammed, Sergeant Eugene Kuudouru, Corporal Jerome Akator, and Lance Corporal Jonathan Sewurah.
Mr Yohuno, accompanied by members of the Police Management Board (POMAB), personally congratulated the officers. He commended their discipline, professionalism, and dedication to duty, describing their performance as exemplary.
The IGP urged the promoted officers to view their elevation as a call to even greater responsibility and sacrifice in the line of duty. He further encouraged all personnel of the Ghana Police Service to uphold the highest standards of professionalism and commitment in protecting lives and property.
