Former Police Director of Operations, ACP Kofi Boakye, has reported for work but is yet to be assigned any specific role.
ACP Boakye was instructed to proceed on leave after government committee recommended his prosecution in connection with the disappearance of 76 parcels of cocaine from a vessel, MV Benjamin at the Tema habour.
Former President Kufuor in his last hours in office instructed that Mr. Boakye be reinstated in the police service with full benefits since the Attorney-General was no longer interested in prosecuting him.
That instruction paved the way for Mr. Boakye to return to work on Monday, January 12, 2009.
Sources close to Joy News say he might have to wait a little longer before getting an assignment because his fate will have to be determined by a yet-to-be-reconstituted police council.
The spokesperson for ACP Boakye, Joe Debrah, told Joy News the former Director of Police Operations cannot go back to his old office.
He said the police service would have to find a way of utilizing Mr. Baokye’s capacity to the fullest given his current standing (Boakye is now a lawyer).
He was called to the Ghana Bar some time last year.
