Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,
I don?t like writing about the police service. This is because I think the current state of the service cannot get any worse. But a recent news item which caught my attention in one of the newspapers has prompted me to write something about the police. I hope this will be the first and only time I am compelled to write about those our scruffy men in black.

The story in the newspaper had it that one of the most senior police officers in the Ashanti Region is facing a service enquiry ?for calling for a new leadership for the service.? Among other things, this officer is reported to have told a seminar that there is a ?total lack of vision from the highest to the lowest level? of the Sikaman Police Service. For opening his mouth too wide to speak the truth, his commanders in Accra are seeking to punish him for causing ?the entire police service to suffer scorn from the public?.
