A political science lecturer at the University of Ghana, Professor Ransford Gyampo, has said the elevation of Deputy Director-General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, ACP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah, to the position of an acting Director of the CID is not a smart move by the government. According to Prof Gyampo, ACP Addo Dabquah should not be confirmed as the substantive Director of the CID. The promotion of ACP Tiwaa Addo Danquah has been met with several dissenting views from different quarters in the country. For instance, Governance Watch, a civil society group, has cast doubt over her credibility. According to Governance Watch, she is yet to clear her name in the alleged A Plus doctored tape saga, hence, she cannot act as CID boss.
Commenting on this development on his Facebook page on Wednesday, October 18, Prof Gyampo said: “This particular appointment is not politically smart for a government that has suffered and continues to suffer a particular accusation. If it's merely acting, then please rethink a different substantive.
“Political power shouldn't blindfold!”
