The Inspector-General of Police, Christian Tetteh Yohuno, has promoted seven officers of the Ghana Police Service following their exceptional performance during a recent anti-robbery operation in Tema.

The promotions, announced on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, recognize the officers’ swift and courageous response to a robbery attack on a Mobile Money vendor at Tema Community 5.

The operation led to the shooting of two suspected robbers and the recovery of a firearm, ammunition, and other items believed to be linked to the crime.

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.

Commending the officers, Mr. Yohuno, together with members of the Police Management Board (POMAB), praised their bravery, discipline, and dedication to duty.

He noted that their actions exemplify the professionalism expected of personnel of the Service.

He further urged the promoted officers to see their advancement as a call to greater responsibility, encouraging them—and all police personnel—to remain committed to safeguarding lives and property across the country.

The recognition forms part of ongoing efforts by the Police Administration to motivate officers and reinforce high standards of operational excellence within the Service.
