In a recent statement, Professor Agyeman-Duah expressed his support for President John Mahama's decision to replace the Inspector General of Police (IGP). He argued that such changes are a normal part of governance and should be viewed as an opportunity for renewal rather than controversy. According to the professor, leadership transitions within law enforcement can invigorate the police force and align it more closely with current national security needs. He emphasized the importance of adaptability in public service roles, suggesting that new perspectives can lead to improved strategies in addressing crime and maintaining order. By endorsing the president's authority to make these appointments, Agyeman-Duah highlights the necessity for leaders to exercise their discretion in appointing officials who reflect their vision for effective governance. This viewpoint invites a broader discussion on how leadership changes can enhance institutional effectiveness while ensuring accountability and responsiveness within the police service. The professor's remarks underscore a belief that change, when managed properly, can ultimately benefit public safety and trust in government institutions.
