Okyeame Gyamfi, the chief of Pampaso, has issued a stern warning to President John Dramani Mahama over what he describes as disrespectful conduct by the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Christian Tetteh Yohuno.

In a video shared by Abusua FM on TikTok and sighted by GhanaWeb on May 22, 2026, Okyeame Gyamfi accused the IGP of deploying police personnel to interfere in the affairs of chiefs during their meeting.

According to him, chiefs under the leadership of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II no longer have privacy due to the constant presence and interference of the Ghana Police Service.

He stated that such actions amount to a breach of traditional protocol and should not be tolerated, urging President Mahama to call the IGP to order.

“I want John Mahama to know that we fought hard before he became President of Ghana, so I want him to invite the IGP because he is trying to disgrace him. I am not happy with what the IGP is doing.

“How can we come to the palace and be surrounded by police officers? What crime have we committed? This is the place where the Asantehene swears his oath before we all recognise him as Asantehene,” he said.

Okyeame Gyamfi further called on the IGP to withdraw police officers stationed at the palace, reiterating the displeasure of the chiefs over the security presence.

“Do they want the sword, or do they think this is a place where just anybody, including prostitutes, can walk in freely? That will never happen. Tell the IGP that Pampaso Okyeame Gyamfi says we are not happy with what he is doing.

“This is a palace. He does not own any land here, and we are unhappy with his actions,” he added.
