President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has given his approval for the promotion of 25 senior officers to the Prisons Directorate.

This follows the advice of the Prisons Service Council in that regard.

The act by the president is in tandem with Article 207(3) of the 1992 Constitution which states that “subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the power to appoint persons to hold or to act in an office in the Prisons Service shall vest in the President, acting in accordance with the advice of the Prisons Service Council,”

Among the list of 25 persons promoted, four have been moved from Deputy Director of Prisons (DDP) to Director of Prisons (DOP).
