Online users are heaping praises on a valiant act by an unnamed officer of the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) following a widespread video.
In the footage posted to Twitter, the officer can be heard yelling as he drags a man, who is thought to be a serial kidnapper, down the centre of an unknown road.
The officer of the GIS, who had the suspected kidnapper by the waist while brandishing whip in hand, barked orders to a few onlookers as traffic piled up on the road and a few passersby watched.

As the video goes on, it was clear the alleged criminal had a young girl in his car, and as the video's description claims, he had given her a lift and abducted her in the process.
As some of the onlookers questioned the schoolgirl about her destination and why she chose to simply sit in any stranger's car, others were able to assist her in exiting the saloon car.
