For what has become a benevolent ritual, Lance Corporal Simon Agbeko, a kind-hearted Ghanaian Police officer who works with the Accra Regional Police Command has once again embarked on fixing damaged state property.

Lance Corporal Simon Agbeko has become notable for giving back to the community and fixing damaged state facilities including street traffic lights.

The junior police officer has been filling in some deadly potholes which threaten the lives of drivers and passengers in Accra for temporal usage.

Simon Agbeko first became inspired to patch up some of the road hazards at the Achimota overhead and the Abeka junction after he drove over the particularly pothole.

Pulse Ghana reports that he said he filled up the potholes to prevent accidents.

The project, he also said, forms part of his road safety campaign to drivers and motorists.

Earlier reports by YEN.com.gh, disclosed that Lance Corporal Agbeko had spent his own money to repair a broken traffic light at Odorkor.

He also donated wheelchairs to random physically-challenged persons on the streets.

The benevolent officer purchased canes and crutches as well for these people, some of whom he locates in various mosques and homes across the capital.

Lance Corporal Simon Agbeko Ekpeagba described these charitable acts as a manifestation of divine directions from God, which he receives in his dreams.
