Stakeholders of the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) of the Ghana Police Service have identified Chief Inspector Aiden Avawena Akpong, Station Officer at the Ashanti Regional Police Command of the Department, as the face of the unit.
Residents, drivers, passengers, vehicle owners and a section of transport operators who daily liaise with the MTTD Station Officer have commended him.
He is seen to be free, firm, frank and a disciplinarian whose attitude to duty was above reproach.
Chief Inspector Akpong was enlisted into the Ghana Police Service 21 years ago, and worked in the Ashanti Region for seven years to become the Station Officer of the Regional Command, Central Station since April 10 this year.
Qualities which distinguish Chief Inspector Akpong include good character and unblemished reputation in an era where perception by the citizenry about the Police Service keeps sinking because of a number of infractions.
His attributes follow his realisation that his realisation that the ultimate goal of a good man was to be true, pure and committed to self in spirit and body.
“As a human being, one ought to be more concerned with good character and reputation, because character represents what a real human being is, while reputation is merely what others think about others, however, good character and good reputation certainly makes him a perfect man in service to humanity and country.”
The stakeholders noted that the Ashanti Regional MTTD must be proud of Chief Inspector Akpong’s calibre, which guarantees hope in the anticipation that the image of the entire Ghana Police Service could be enhanced for better human relations management.
They recommended that Chief Inspector Akpong be encouraged to climb up in the Service to motivate others.
