Dampare stands out among all IGPs – DSP Danso

Western Regional Director of the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD), DSP Seth Danso, has praised former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr. George Akuffo Dampare for his significant contributions to law enforcement in Ghana.

Speaking in an interview on Eyewitness News on Citi FM on Friday, DSP Danso highlighted the transformative leadership Dampare brought to the Ghana Police Service.

“I have served a lot of them [IGPs] and I have observed and followed their works,” he said. “But with the coming of Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, I think the face of policing in Ghana, seriously speaking, changed, and he did a lot. He set the bar so high.”

DSP Danso further described Dampare as exceptional, emphasizing his distinct impact compared to his predecessors.

“Among his peers, the IGPs that have come and gone, if he is one, I will say he is unique amongst all of them. He stands out, he stands tall amongst his peers,” he stated.

Dr. Dampare, who was appointed in 2021, introduced key policing reforms, including enhanced community engagement and stricter internal discipline, earning him recognition for reshaping the service.
