We have a lot of complaints about Police officers, however, we also admit that most of them are actually heroes who do not wear capes.

They put their lives on the line just so that the rest of us can feel safe and protected.

Now, another police officer is going above and beyond the call of duty to assist a needy but brilliant young girl.

A senior police officer who wants to remain anonymous has paid the admission fee of GHS 5,000 for an ex-convict nursing student.

Alice Bonye, a former second-year student of the Tamale Nursing Training College had told Crime Check TV that she wanted to enrol in a private nursing institution to start all over again after she was jailed 6 months for stealing money to pay her fees.

When she was jailed, the school also dismissed her, thereby ending her academic path into nursing.

Though she could still pursue nursing through private nursing education, raising the funds for private education was also difficult for Alice.

That is why the intervention by the anonymous police officer is a lifesaver for Alice.

With the police officer’s GHS 5,000 donation Alice can now go back to school and become a registered nurse in the future.
