A police officer with the Buffalo Unit in Kumasi, Corporal Ebenezer Okyere on Wednesday morning allegedly shot and killed himself at Tafo Mile 4 in the Kumasi Metropolis.
The police have started investigations into the matter.

Yeeiii, killing yourself because of a woman? Not me oh! in this modern world? what mr dead policeman did you know that the beautiful ones are not yet born? As for the girl, some guy will grab her soon & she'll forget about you. Your heart wsa so weak for a policeman. The judgement day is there for you. Shame on yoir dead body.You need to be whipped for disgracing manhood.
@GESTAPO you've made my day.
The police officer killed himself because of a ***barred word*** woman.aaaaaah why? The police administration need to take their men through counselling.Many need help but they do not know who to talk to.This is not the first time this has happened its becoming too rampant.
MANY OF THE POLICE OFFICERS GOES HOME WITH THEIR RIFFLE FORGETTING THAT IT SUPPOSE NOT TO BE WITH THEM AT HOME. SOME OF THIS OFFICERS EVEN THREAT THE CIVILIANS WITH THE RIFLE. THIS HAS BEEN THE NORM IN GHANA. OFFICERS ARE BEEN WARN NOT TO SEND RIFFLE HOME AFTER DUTY FERIOD BUT THEY WOULD NOT LISTEN TO U. MY SEGESTION IS THAT ARMORALS ARE TO START CHARGING OFFICERS WHO VIOLATES THIS LAWS BY SENDING RIFFLE HOME AFTER DUTY.
On what account must a Police Officer have a service riffle at his residence? The worse of it all is after duty! I served in one of the most reputable Armies in the world and such daft issues does not happen. What happened with the Armoury? How does your security system works?
