DCOP Emmanuel Teye Cudjoe Appointed As New Ashanti Regional Police Commander

DCOP Emmanuel Teye Cudjoe has been named the new Ashanti Regional Police Commander.

He replaces DCOP Frank Abrokwa, who has been transferred to the Police Headquarters in Accra by Police administration.

His transfer was triggered by his poor management of security during the Ashanti Regional Council of State election, held at the Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council (ARCC) in Kumasi on Tuesday, February 11.

The election, which began peacefully, turned chaotic after machomen, allegedly affiliated with the NDC from Obuasi, disrupted the process while the sorting of ballot papers was underway.

The Ashanti Regional Police Command, who led the police team to oversee the election, failed to manage the chaotic situation properly as expected as police resulting in his transfer to Accra.

His transfer letter was sent to him immediately after the incident.

DCOP Teye Cudjoe was the Central North Regional Commander before taking over from COP Frank Abrokwa.

The Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene welcomed the new Ashanti Regional Police Commander and stated that he looks forward to a strong collaboration in maintaining stability and fostering a secure environment for all within the Region and the country at large.
