The immediate past Inspector-General of Police, Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, has been lauded for his exemplary service by the Central Regional Chairman of the Peace Council and Bishop of the Cape Coast Diocese of the Methodist Church, Very Reverend Richardson Aboagye Andam.
The commendation came during a funeral service at the Ebenezer Methodist Church in Mankessim on Saturday, March 15th, which Dr. Dampare attended.
In his sermon, Reverend Aboagye Andam expressed admiration for the former IGP’s outstanding contributions to the nation and emphasised the widespread appreciation for his work.
The Bishop went on to highlight Dr. Dampare’s lasting impact on the country, particularly his decision to prohibit police officers from carrying firearms to polling stations.
“What you have done for this country will live with us forever. May God bless you for your wisdom in not allowing police officers to take guns to the polling stations; it was God who spoke to you.
“You saved Ghana, God bless you. Your reward will be huge both on earth and heaven. Over time many others will appreciate you more,” he added.
