He spent 34 years in the Ghana Police Service, rising from Chief Inspector (1989) to Commissioner of Police (2016) .

He served across jurisdictions: Ashanti, Accra, Western Regions, and held key leadership roles in Intelligence, Training, Operations, and Legal & Prosecution .
Academically, he’s well‑qualified: BSc in Biochemistry (KNUST), LLB, BL (Best Student, Ghana School of Law 2008), MPA (University of Ghana), plus a certificate in Police Administration from Leicester .
Since retirement (April 2023), he’s been sworn in as a Notary Public and praised by the Judicial Service for shaping policies on magistrates and court rules .
Why he’s a perfect council member:
His experience spans crime‑fighting, training, legal process, and policy.
His track record—honest, fearless, competent—earns cross‐sector respect.
He’s already advising the judiciary and legal systems.
His diverse academic and field background equips him to shape strategy, professionalism, and accountability.
