Dr Peter Alex Wiredu, Director of GIS noted that the two key elements that some officers and men are lacking in their work attitudes and ethics are commitment and dedication.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the end of year get-together in Accra on Friday, Dr Wiredu told the personnel that \u201cno sacrifice should be considered too much in the service of the country of our birth\u201d.<\/p>\n
He said some officers and men only appear to be interested in the prestige attached to the positions they occupy and not the responsibility that goes with such appointments.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we enter the New Year, let us resolve to work extra hard in our selfless service to mother Ghana and be vigilant in our operations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Dr Wiredu, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCOP) tasked the officers to endeavour to live by the service\u2019s new vision which is: \u201cDelivering excellence in migration management for national development.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said the service would be extra vigilant in the fight against illegal immigrants and documentation fraud.<\/p>\n
Dr Wiredu therefore entreated the public not to hesitate to report suspicious characters and foreigners who do not have relevant documents covering their stay.<\/p>\n
He commended efforts of officers who worked tirelessly despite the daunting challenges facing the service adding: \u201cWe are optimistic that government could assist us with more logistics to address these problems.\u201d<\/p>\n
Inadequate personnel, lack of vehicles, issues of Fulani herdsmen are some of the challenges confronting the GIS.<\/p>\n
On service conditions, Dr Wiredu said management is working assiduously to ensure that it is submitted to Parliament for approval soon.<\/p>\n
Dr Wiredu later presented monies and refrigerators to six retirees of the service.<\/p>\n
Dr Seth Otuteye, Chairman of GIS Board, urged the personnel to be punctual and responsible in their operations to raise the stature of the service.<\/p>\n
He advised them to establish standards in their human relations, which formed the basis of collective work.<\/p>\n
Dr Otuteye told the personnel to continue to lend support in line with the vision set out by the service.<\/p>\n
