He later narrated that a police officer engaged him recently to help him get a travel opportunity to Poland.

"Three days ago, a police officer told me that he would leave Ghana if I got a Poland travel opportunity for him. He's a police officer who loves his country and wants to serve the nation but intends to leave for Poland. They are doing an afforestation programme in Poland, and he is willing to go and plant trees.
"The police officer told me that if the opportunities were abundant, like IGP would come to meet only the rifles; all the human beings would be gone. They are quiet in their pain," he added.
