The Acting Director-General of the Ghana Police Service’s Public Affairs Directorate has urged members of the general public to desist from paying off or bribing officers when they breach road traffic regulations.
Individuals found engaging in such unlawful acts, ACP Kwesi Ofori said will be penalised in accordance with the law.
ACP Kwesi Ofori, interacting with host of Newsfile, Samson Lardy Anyenini, stated that the current administration headed by Inspector General of Police (IGP), George Akuffo Dampare is keen to ensure corrupt practices in the country cease.
“We are aspiring to make our nation great and strong. The giver and taker should be punished by law. I believe that the law has spoken well of it. Looking at what is happening in the police, our new IGP has rolled out so many programmes and during his visit, he noted anti corruption is one of his visions to ensure we detach ourselves from such unholy practices,” he said on Saturday.
