Pressure Mounts IGP To Return Chinese Societies Cash

Barely 24-hours after Ghana Association of Chinese Societies and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of CAITEC Group, Tang Hong donated an amount of GH¢50,000 to the Police administration, the Inspector General of Police David Asante-Apeatu has come under pressure to return it.

Some environmentalists who are leading the crusade are questioning the moral justification in accepting such an amount when these Chinese have wrecked havoc to the environment literally polluting water bodies in areas where galamsey is pronounced.

Many are of the view that it will compromise the police from helping to fight the galamsey cancer that has bedeviled the country in recent times observing that it is just a way of winning the heart of the security agencies to do more destruction of the environment.

The Ghana Association of Chinese Societies claim the amount was in support of the construction of the Police Intelligence and Professional Standards (PIPS) Headquarters at the Nima Police Station.
