Whoever raises red light is either a madman or a criminal – COP Kofi Boakye | Social

The director general of the police in charge of research and planning, COP Nathan Kofi Boakye, called for a strict enforcement of the highway code in the country in order to reduce the high level of indiscipline on the roads.

He added that such minor crimes were a long-term threat to national security and needed to be controlled.

At a meeting of the Association of Women Accountants of Ghana in Tamale, COP Boakye, speaking of "security threats and challenges and mitigation measures for security", described the perpetrators of traffic violations as " crazy, sick or criminal ".

"We have to start applying all the laws. How come people are jumping red lights and just pbading through. People who jump red lights are either crazy, sick or criminals who are fleeing crime. We need to find a way to deal with such people. If we can not fight small crimes, we can not fight big crimes. It's politics, "he said.

The general public is also encouraged to take videos and photos of the perpetrators of these offenses and to send them to the WhatsApp contact point of the official station – 0549986996 for transmission to the appropriate neighborhoods.
