    It is not only at Akosombo that there are NPP saboteurs, they are everywhere. They don't care whether Ghana continues to lag (behind) in development, as long as they are in power - to them that's all that matters

  • Tiwaa 1 week ago

    Foot soldier recruit. Very corrupt and unpatriotic. He must be sacked immediately. He's got nothing to do in the police force. If he is not sacked, then it means, he was sent by the IGP and the government to do what he was ca ...

  • Son of sons 1 week ago

    @ Burkina are you for real? First of all taking videos in a public space is perfectly legal. Secondly, once you are a civil servant and at post of working, anyone can video you.

    This police officer should be fired with immediate effect.

  • GNL 1 week ago

    I doubt if he will be fired. For all you know, his bosses are aware of his activities on the site. He'll send them their portion of the money he collects. He was behaving as if he owned the place.

    Who knows, maybe the officer self is fake.
