The GhanaPolice Service has replaced the damaged taxi of the driver who assisted in the
arrest of two armed robbers in Accra, in January.
A Toyota Corolla was handed to a cousin of the taxi driver by the
IGP, John Kudalor, at the Police Headquarters, Monday.
Two suspected robbers, Abaliku Sannie, 35 and Oko Quaicoo, 30
(Pictured below) shot an Administrative Assistant of Koala Shopping Mall, after
she had left the Cantonment branch of the company.

The
taxi driver, who witnessed the incident, stopped the fleeing shooters by
ramming his taxi into a motorbike they were using to escape leaving his
taxi badly damaged.

Also, he
prevented some angry youth who tried to lynch the suspects. The suspects were
later arrested by the police. The victims however, survived the attack.
The driver has since been commended by many, including former
President J.J. Rawlings and President John Mahama for his heroic act. The
President awarded him with a house.
The driver was also presented with a brand new ChevroletOptra(Sedan) Saloon car by Koala Supermarket.

The Ghana
Police Service promised to replace his damaged car, hence the presentation of
the exact module that got damaged.
Cousin of the driver, Joseph Sarfo Kantanka, who received the
vehicle on his behalf and was excited about the kind gesture, thanked the IGP
for fulfilling the promise.
