    You are wrong. This type of acknowledgement is common in every Obroniland. It is a way of engaging everyone in the defence and protection of his/her community and countly. It is a way of honouring patriots.

    Is this what the whole Ghana Police Service, represented by the Whole IGP, is able to present to a HERO? This is a disgrace. Come on, another case of disrespecting our heroes.

  • Victor Asiedu-Young 8 years ago

    Thanks to the IGP for his generous gift. But that Toyota Corolla is certainly not a brand new car; it's probably 1999-2001 Model. The Police Chief has done his part; the Media has to work hard and report accurately. Most of t ...

  • Odikro 8 years ago

    Good thing the robbers were caught. But the act of knocking down somebody - anybody - intentionally, is still a crime on our books. I believe this is the first time so the taxi driver can go free with all his cars, houses and ...

    This is at best a 14 year old model of Toyota corolla (at best a 2002) model. By GRA definition, an over aged car
