Rotary Int’l Honours Dampare

 

The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, has been conferred with the most prestigious fellow’s medal by

Rotary International.

The conferment of the prestigious Paul Harris Fellow’s medal was done during Rotary International’s District 9104 Official District Conference in Kumasi, which was attended by the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.

This recognition, celebrates Dr. Akuffo Dampare’s exceptional leadership in maintaining peace and security throughout the country since assuming the role of Inspector General of Police.

In a keynote address titled “Creating Hope During the 2024 Elections and Beyond: Activities of the Ghana Police Service,” the IGP shared with the audience, various initiatives he, and the current police leadership, have taken to build hope and confidence among the public.

He cited among other initiatives, increased police visibility, scaled up intelligence gathering and the “Snatch Them Young Policing Initiative” as some of the ways the police have adopted to build hope among the citizenry.

He also urged the public to help build hope among personnel of the police by encouraging them when they do right and constructively criticising them when they are in the wrong.

“The actions of the creators of hope will endure only when we are motivated. First, we can be motivating ourselves by our inner God-feeling that irrespective of what anyone says or does we will continue giving hope, then  encouragement of the recipient of the hope who are the beneficiaries of that hope will also create hope for the people giving the hope. So the actions of the creators and recipients of hope reinforces each other in the hope process,” the IGP said.

The Paul Harris Fellow’s award, considered the highest form of recognition by Rotary Clubs, acknowledges individuals, whether Rotarians or members of the community, who have made remarkable contributions to society.
