A Ghanaian police officer has been spitted in a viral video where he rejected an amount of money given to him as bribe and strongly warned the driver not to repeat that.
Though the identity of the police officer is yet to be fully confirmed but it appears he comes from the Volta Region and resides in an Akan community as he spoke Twi with a minor Ewe accent.
In the video, the officer stopped the vehicle commonly known as ‘Mahama Camboo’ to make some checks.
He requested for the license of the driver, which the driver gave out with an amount of money embedded in it.
The police officer became visibly angry when he saw the amount of money, for which he asked the driver to park and wait.
Within a short moment, he was back asking the driver why he would do such a thing. At this point, the driver started to apologize.
“Your money would not do anything for me, as I take more salary than you yourself. Are you aware how much I am paid a month?” the officer angrily asked the driver.
The footage appears to have been secretly recorded by a passenger who was probably trying to nab the officer in the act of bribery but was pleasantly surprised instead.
