IGP reveals why Police officers collect bribe
The Ghanaian Inspector-General of Police, James Oppong-Boanuh, has named citizens for the reason why police officers collect bribes.
According to Concise News, Oppong-Boanuh said the willingness of civilians to offer policemen bribes is responsible for the unprofessional conduct of officers.
The police boss, who said it during a radio programme, Ekosii Sen, on Asempa FM on Tuesday, added that giving bribe entices policemen.
Oppong-Boanuh particularly berated drivers who break the law and offer bribes to avoid prosecution.
The police chief insisted that if offenders stopped offering bribes, policemen would not be inclined to either request or accept bribes
He said, “If we all decide not to pay bribes and agree to go to court, no police officer can force his hand into your pocket.”
