Justice Abdulai challenges COP Yohonu’s appointment as Deputy IGP

Private Legal Practitioner and Law Lecturer at UPSA Law School Justice Abdulai has filed a fresh suit at the Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of the appointment of COP Christian Tetteh Yohonu as Deputy IGP in-charge of operations. Justice Abdulai is asking the court to restrain the COP Christian Tetteh Yohonu from holding himself as Deputy IGP in-charge of operations and declare the entire appointment by President Akufo-Addo as unconstitutional. He argues that the said appointment has no basis in law.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo recently appointed Commissioner of Police (COP) Christian Tetteh Yohuno as the Deputy IGP in charge of operations.

In a writ dated July 30, Mr Abdulai indicates that the appointment of COP Yohuno is “unconstitutional, null and void.”

He is also seeking an “order restraining COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno from acting or purporting to act as Deputy Inspector-General of Police in Charge of Operations.

“A further order restraining the Inspector General of Police or any command under him from accepting, relating to and/or issuing instructions or commands to COP Mr Christian Tetteh Yohuno in his assumed capacity as Deputy Inspector-General of Police in Charge of Operation.”
