General Sergeant Kwaku Aduenin Boakye was part of some 612 police recruits who passed out from the training school on Friday, July 29, 2022.

He graduated as one of the overall nine best graduating under cadets nationwide.

In his capacity as the reviewing officer, a proud COP Kofi Boakye advised the graduating police officers to be of good behaviour and not engage in acts that would bring the name of the police into disrepute.

He underscored the importance of the reputation of the police and the need for the new officers to also work towards building and protecting the image of the police.

He stated that the police administration would not offer protection to officers who misconduct themselves adding that “the police service is not for self-aggrandisement.”

Out of the 612 recruits who graduated on Friday, 300 were females while 312 were males. The graduating number included some 98 cadets.

A proud COP Kofi Boakye at the ceremony handed General Sergeant Kwaku Aduenin Boakye his award for graduating as best recruit.
