Departing Port Security Manager charges stakeholders to respect security rules

Users of the ports have been urged to adhere strictly to measures put in place by the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA) to curtail the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid-19)) pandemic

Other members of the port team present shared their fond experiences whilst working together, and wished him well in his subsequent appointments.
