Rev. Dr. David Nenyi Ampah-Bennin is a Commissioner of Police (COP) and an ordained minister. He has a passion to reach the unreached for Christ by holding crusades, especially in rural areas where it is difficult to get access to good Christian materials, and by establishing Evangelical Churches to enrol more people who do not know Christ to know and accept Him.

For his hard work, diligence, integrity, and excellent leadership ability, he was awarded Chief of the Sector Commander in November 2005 for the African Union Mission in Sudan.
