“I’m also grateful to Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, he showed me great support in my work, I’m also grateful to all chiefs for their support, and also to all police in the region, I would not have earned the name, ‘Commander One’ if you had not helped me.”<\/p>\n

“I’m also grateful to Kumasi, you pampered me, you showed me love, you prayed for me, I’m really grateful to you all.\u00a0 I am also grateful to you, journalists, you’ve really done well, and to my family, thank you very much”.<\/p>\n

He admonished all residents in the region to give the new regional commander more support and respect, than was given him.<\/p>\n

“The police administration has replaced me with a good lawyer, an FBI agent,who is equally fit for the task, DCOP Ken Yeboah… Give him all the support and love he needs just like you gave me, so that gradually crime will be erased from the region.”<\/p>\n
