Director-General of Public Affairs of the Ghana Police Service, ACP David Eklu, has given assurance that the Police Administration will consider the feedback received from the public with regards to some reshuffle of its top hierarchy Tuesday, September 25.
The police administration Tuesday reshuffled some of its Director Generals and also filled the vacant position of Deputy Inspector General of Police (IGP) in the Command Structure.
Speaking in an interview with Ekouba Gyasi on Atinka AM Drive, ACP David Eklu noted that they have had some swift feedbacks from the public suggesting that some of the changes should not be carried out.
And that the appointing authorities will also listen to the public because the Police serves the public hence, if they raise concerns definitely their concerns shall be considered.
That notwithstanding, he retorted that any officer appointed is a public officer and must work in the interest of the public.
For instance, there has been public outcry over the transfer of COP Mr. Christian Tetteh Yohuno as Director of Police Intelligence to the MTTD.
The Police Administration, he explained is undergoing some transformation to become a world-class Police Service and there is the need to have cooperation, feedback from the public to work diligently.
Also speaking in connection with the order from the IGP to arrest the Asutifi South MP, Collins Dauda, ACP Eklu stated that a complaint was lodged at Kenyasi Police Station that he had organized some thugs to beat the complainant up.
The complaint was officially made on the 23rd September, 2018.
And consequently the police visited his home but realized he was in Accra. Meanwhile, Collins Dauda has submitted himself at the Headquarters for his statement and has been subsequently given self-recognizance bail to report when the need be.
