Peter Toobu indicated that he went for a funeral in the Eastern region and was on his way back in a Public transport.

He said the bus was stopped by a police officer and the driver kept GHS5.00 into his driver’s license and was going to meet the police.

Honorable Peter Toobu said he asked where the driver was going and he said he was going to meet the police officer. He said, he asked that the driver should sit and wait for the police. He actually waited and when the police officer came, he inspected and asked them to go.

Peter Toobu further added that if a police officer even wants to do the right thing, he said they are always interference’s from influential people like chiefs, pastors, Imams, MPs and other groups of people. He added this sometimes seems like the police officer who is trying to do the right things is rather being wicked.
