Stupid Minister. Did the govenment ever figure out where to plant the sugarcane before opening the factory? When did the galamsey operators start their business - before or after the opening of the factory. By, the way Garbrah is no Dr. He ia Mr. Garbrah. He is the group of Gifty xx, Ativor, Kludjeson and other who claim they have honorary degrees from unknown places and without any citations.

What is wrong being a short person. Anyone with a level head would know that what the sports minister and Vice President said were just comic reliefs and meant nothing. So if you are short in stature and see this as an insult, it is you insulting yourself. There is absolutely nothing wrong being a short person. After all no one created himself/herself that way. All people of short stature should ignore this NPP propaganda, they will not treat you any differently than what other parties would do. Don't deceive yourselves,

The police officers were blatantly using their authority to abuse the rights of ordinary citizens. As ordinary Ghanaians, when we see these offices stop the vehicles we are traveling ion, sometimes three or four times in one journey, walk straight to the driver's window, shamelessly collect the driver's license which we all saw the driver open and slide in a GHC1.00 note only minutes earlier, walk round to the back of the vehicle and return momentarily to hand the license back to the driver, we all feel our tummies rumble violently! Oh Ghana! If an office in full uniform would stoop so low for such pittance, then did we go or did we come?
Only the day before this directive was 'leaked'. I was on a taxi between Agona and Wiamoase when the driver pleaded: "Can anybody give me GHC3.00?" After I had handed him my fare, he added: "These thieves! Now they wont accept anything less than GHC3.00". When I heard that, I cursed myself: "Oh no: my money is going to be given to these fraudsters!" Within a couple of hundred metres, this thief raised his filthy hands to signal our vehicle to a stop, and as usual, shamelessly played over Act 1 Scene 1 of the police code of practice!
The directive is seriously long over due! Whoever wants to convince us that the police is acting to check criminality may be the daughter or son of these fraudsters in the police service. They rather encourage criminality because what they are interested in is how much they are fleecing: the fact is that most crimes are committed by criminals in private cars, but the police normally only stop commercial vehicles but wave private cars on. We would only be convinced if the police could show us any statistics of how many of the licenses they checked in a day were found to be illegal or illicit, and how many criminals they were able to sop in the process!
Thew IGP must not stop there. He must empower citizens to report any police officers who are spotted taking these roadside bribes. The advent of modern phones will ensure that gathering evidence would not be too difficult to do. Let us try this and see what better Ghana we can all create for ourselves.

Between Takoradi and Accra one can count not less than 10 Police stops/checks. What at all do they check other than moneies in licences.

Ghanaians are jokes. which country has policemen standing on e highway requesting driver license from drivers? why do we have setbacks for every act of development? why do drivers overspeed? why do people lose thier lives in the hands of these drivers? is it not because they want to either dulge these hungry policemen or to make up the time 'wasted' with these policemen? we blacks never look at any long term effect of any innovations. we are mentally short..

in the first place if the vehicle had roadwealthy certificate with unexpired insurance cert, in law ,The police had no duty on that car, if the car is not in good shape but had road wealthy cert, it is the officer at the DVLA who issued the cert that need to be hold accountable
2. how many times had the police able to clear all the cars that are in bad shape from the road?
police officer on duty would stop him and collect their money and allow him to go .they are only interested in the money collection.
Ghana police are abusing the drivers license inspection.
in ghana where are the road signs?
eg if somebody is traveling from kumasi to kotoka airport and s/he dont know the place , there is no signs to follow, even on our high ways apart from bumping signs there is nothing to show as road signs - so tell me the sensibility in it to give 2yrs expiring date of driving license? all these things are not the best , and it has given the police a path to collect bribe and unnecessary delaying of the motor users in this country
yes officer on duty can ask you to show your drivers license , but it must not take him 30seconds to give it back to the motorist , but what did we see?after collecting it from you they can delay you for more than 1hour until you heed to his/her corruption demand he would not give it back- why?
even the police administration know it for a fact that if you post and officer to MTU they say haleluya , if you take one from the trafic unit they become angry and call it poverty post?
why did prof mills put the police service first on the single spine salary structure? , now police service have one of the best monthly salaries in this country , why should the people sit unconcerned to allow them to steal to get double payments from the poor citizens?
if we want to develop and make Ghana a better place to stay all must welcome this directives .
if the police change from their corrupt practices and they themself started to be law abiding , that is where the people are also going to be law abiding because they know for sure if the catches you there is noway you can get out of the hook until you face the penalty of the committed offense

This man has no brains. What kind of international relations expert is he? Police create traffic by wasting driver time on unnecessary things. That's what this is to cure. Police at a barrier closed to cape coast wasted my time for 2hrs because of expired extinguisher and seized my license because their boss let with it. Had to travel back to Accra without it What kind of abuse is this? If I fail to know my extinguisher had expired does it make me a criminal? Ghanaians deserves more respect from our police brothers.
