The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr Mohammed Ahmed Alhassan, who said this, also indicated that training was the core of reforms to make the police more adaptable to modern trends of policing.
Mr Alhassan was speaking at the graduation of 50 senior police officers at the Ghana Police Command and Staff College (GPCSC) in Winneba last Friday.
The 50 officers underwent a five-week training programme in management practices.
Known as the “Senior Command Course,” the programme was the third to be organised by the police administration this year.
Objective
Mr Alhassan said the objective of the training was to equip the officers with the requisite managerial, supervisory and operational skills to enable them to discharge their duties efficiently.
“In order to meet the challenges of the time, there is the need for us to discover, embrace and employ new and current law enforcement strategies that would enable us to tackle any situation that we are confronted with in the performance of our duties,” he said.
Expectation
The IGP further urged the officers to operate within the confines of the law and be fair and firm in its enforcement.
“Ghanaians will take nothing short of good services. You must, therefore, lead by example and embrace selflessness and honesty,” he stated.
