Ghanaians react to the commissioning of the model police station

Many Ghanaians had various opinions to share on the commissioning of the facility. YEN.com.gh compiles some responses below.

@JonathanTakyi9 said:

The fuel for the president's convoy alone can build this station twice. MCEs and DCEs can commission projects like these rather than the president wasting time and fuel to go there for this.
