commitment to aligning with the government’s agenda for resetting and improving security in Ghana.
Speaking at his official swearing in ceremony, IGP Yohuno assured the nation of his unwavering dedication to reforming the Ghana Police Service, emphasizing professionalism,

Until his appointment, COP Yohuno served as the Deputy Inspector-General of Police, playing a key role in shaping the operational and strategic framework of the Ghana Police Service. His distinguished career, which started in 1985 as a police recruit, reflects decades of dedication, leadership, and strategic expertise.
Yohuno has held six Director-General roles, overseeing key areas like Administration, Intelligence, and Special Operations.
As a Police Management Board member, he shaped national policies and strategies. His tenure as Greater Accra Regional and Deputy Regional Commander saw him excel in crime prevention and resource management.
