Family and friends country so this isn't news.
Fixing of cronies while in office is the job of the day so what else?

I admire the lady and mother for struggling hard to reach such high positions in the Police Service. May God continue to bless them.

Don’t worry. Bribery and corruption is part and parcel of the life of all Ghanaians. From the Church even to the Prisons, there is Whom You Know. Why was Former President Clinton of the USA able to avoid the Vietnam War? He could because the Parents were Big in the society and knew people who could help him get to a University in England at that time to beat the recruitment to go and fight in Vietnam.

Not every Police Personnel goes to work at the Roadside. Only the Motor Traffic Unit does. Know your facts. Don’t be jealous of them but congratulate them.

Ghanaian brothers and sisters, the government claims to protect Ghana's rivers and ecosystem, but they're just putting on a show. While they've arrested a small number of people—those who haven't paid bribes to local officials—those who have bribed the immigration department, police, and military are still illegally mining gold. Our precious resources are being easily extracted by these people, and our natural environment is a mess. You can see for yourselves now; those illegal gold miners are still working along the rivers and in the forests because they've paid protection money to the local government, so they can work with peace of mind, without anyone bothering them. The Ministry of Environment says it will ban diesel engines, but that's also just a show. Their goal is to extract money from diesel engine shops. Anyone who doesn't pay will be investigated. In a month, you'll see, these shops are still selling diesel engines, and the illegal miners are still mining.

Congratulations to mother and daughter.However,is the rank COP the highest in the Ghana Police Force. I thought the highest rank would logically be Inspector General of Police(IGP) but no,Ghanaweb would have you think otherwise.

Lydia Donkor, thank your Mum for your rapid rise. If she were a wicked Police Officer in her days, her Junior colleagues would have shown you pepper. So Yaa, be a good Police Woman too.

Ghanaweb, as for this I give you 100% for reporting. It'll inspire the young to work hard and also teach them not to always sit at the comfort zone.
I personally admire the lady and her credentials.
Keep it up! !
