Police failed to pay the GH¢50k due me after I gave tip-off – Informant


 An informant is complaining that despite assisting the Sekondi police with a tip-off, leading to the arrest of a notorious suspect, who has been on the police wanted list for some time now, they have refused to reward him with the GH¢50,000 after the job was done.

Complaining bitterly to Paa Kwesi Simpson on the Omanbapa morning show on Connect FM, the obviously peeved man said the police have neglected him after he gave them the tip-off, as a good citizen, to arrest a notorious suspect last Tuesday.

According to the informant, whose name is withheld, he got information from the Sekondi police to assist them to arrest a suspect, whose phone was with him for repairs,

He said aside from the tip-off, he personally arrested the suspect at about 9:000pm and sent him to the police.

“Though the police promised to offer me GH¢50,000 if l am able to assist them in the arrest of the notorious suspect and l single-handedly apprehended the suspect and handed him over to Sekondi police but they have refused to pay me,” he bemoaned.

All efforts to get the police to fulfill their promise have yielded no results, he complained.

Osafo Maafo is Senior Minister Former President John Dramani Mahama has observed that the comments of Senior Minister, Yaw Osafo Maafo still remain a threat to African democracy and must be condemned by all well-meaning Ghanaians.

Your development depends on the one who has no resources,” the voice said. “You can’t say this openly,” he cautioned the Council members, but added that they are at liberty to talk about it among Asantes. “We should protect ourselves, we should protect our income.
