DCOP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah has been confirmed as the Director-General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Police Service.<\/p>\n

This is according to a communique from the Inspector General of Police, David Asante Apeatu sighted by Citi News<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”CfZwT0sK5yvjO3pUTe5ZzB4JUkAwCgZZ”]DCOP Addo-Danquah, then with the rank of ACP, was directed to act as the Director General of the CID after DCOP Bright Oduro, had been relieved of the position in October 2017.<\/p>\n

COP Bright Oduro was previously the Director General in charge of Welfare at the Police Service before being moved to the CID as the new Director-General in January 2017.<\/p>\n

He was set to retire in January 2018 after 29 years of service.<\/p>\n

The reasons for Bright Oduro\u2019s dismissal remain unknown. However, a report by the Daily Guide Newspaper on Monday suggested that there were a series of petitions against him in some land-related issues.<\/p>\n

He subsequently accused the police hierarchy of unfair treatment<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and lamented that he was not given a fair hearing over allegations that he was protecting land-guards in\u00a0Accra.<\/p>\n

DCOP Addo-Danquah controversy<\/strong><\/p>\n

DCOP Addo-Danquah, was also enveloped in controversy when she was accused by Kwame Asare Obeng, also known as A-Plus, of trying to cover-up some malfeasance\u00a0in the probe of President Akufo-Addo\u2019s two Deputy\u00a0Chiefs of Staff.<\/p>\n

In an audio said to be a leaked recording of a conversation\u00a0between A-Plus and ACP Addo-Danquah, the police officer was heard advising A-Plus to deny the allegations because he is a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).<\/p>\n

The Police officer was accused of\u00a0misconduct in the manner she handled the investigation, per the details of the telephone conversation that appeared unprofessional and compromised.<\/p>\n

She later claimed that the tape was doctored<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0to portray her in a bad light, a claim A-Plus denied.<\/p>\n

DCOP Anthony Tennyson Aidoo was also confirmed as the Director General of ICT in the same communique.<\/p>\n
