You’re also corrupt because you tempt police officers with money – Ghana Police service to Ghanaians

According to DCOP Kojo Antwi Tabi, the Deputy Director-General of the Ghana Police Service in charge of the Private Services Organization, the Ghanaian population is just as corrupt as the police if perceptions are to be believed.

The senior police officer pleaded with Ghanaians to stop paying their policemen before accusing the whole police force of being corrupt.

He stated that the majority of Gnanaisn who are detained by the police for committing crimes and other offenses don’t want to be held accountable by the law; hence, they are the first to pay bribes to the detaining officers in order to avoid being held accountable.

Speaking in an interview with Joy News, he said, “The members of the public too must be blamed for their accusation that they are making. They are also equally guilty, because if you do not give the Police money, he cannot take it from your pocket. If you commit an offense and the Police wants to charge you for court, you have to allow yourself to go through the due process.

“At times, even when you go to court, the offense may not attract a serious fine. But when you tempt the Police with money, when you do not want to go to court, then you are giving an unscrupulous Police chance to demand any amount of money, because you are not willing to allow yourself to go to court,”

We have been talking to them, we have been training them, and from time to time, those who are offenders, that is, the policemen who are found to have collected money or to have extorted money or done something unlawfully, we normally punish them or dismiss them.”
