    There are too many holes in this story, too many contradcitions.

    Sounds more like damage control.

    Mr Patrick Timbilla is an Honest Man and I believe he won't lower himself for this kind of money. I believe He is innocent. The Ghana Police should rather arrest those people who payed the bribes .

  • United Ghana 9 years ago

    Corney, my thoughts exactly. It was unlisted persons turning up for training that drew attention to the fraud. They think we're stupid enough to accept any hype they put out

  • Citizen Vigilante 9 years ago

    To say the truth, why can't the police and other sister security agencies advertise the recruitment and enlistment just like the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF). They always do their recruitment underground, why won't all this happe ...
