According to sources, ACP K.K Amoah has been replaced by DCOP Adusei Poku.
The newly appointed EOCO boss is expected to start work on Thursday, February 28.
ACP K.K Amoah is believed to have clocked 60 years – for this reason he is leaving office on retirement.
Controversy
In November last year, ACP K. K. Amoah came under public criticism for suspending the Eastern Region Director of EOCO, Fred Dzeny.
ACP Amoah suspended Mr Dzeny for making utterances he [ACP Amoah] described as unethical.
Mr Dzeny had called on President Add Dankwa Akufo-Addo to prosecute his appointees found culpable of corrupt practices in order to cement his commitment towards fighting corruption in the country.
Mr Dzeny made the call while addressing patrons at a forum held under the theme “Youth in the fight against corruption”.
