The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) of the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF), Lt. General Thomas Oppong-Peprah, has been promoted to the rank of 4-star General, making him the first to achieve this distinction in the history of the GAF.
This historic promotion comes as part of an ongoing expansion within the Ghana Armed Forces, which includes the creation of new commands.
These developments necessitated an elevation in rank for the Chief of Defence Staff to effectively oversee the growing responsibilities of the military.
Until this promotion, the GAF’s leadership had been traditionally held by a 3-star Lieutenant General. General Oppong-Peprah’s advancement marks a significant milestone in the evolution of Ghana’s military leadership structure.
The promotion underscores the Armed Forces’ commitment to adapting to new challenges and strengthening its command hierarchy in line with its expanded operational framework.
