“Those who engage in these acts are endangering lives on the road, and I will ensure that they are removed and prosecuted,” he warned.
The DVLA boss stressed the importance of ensuring that every driver undergoes the proper licensing process to enhance road safety.
He revealed that he is actively monitoring the agency’s operations and has begun investigations into cases of staff members colluding with third parties, commonly known as “goro boys,” to facilitate illegal licensing.
“When people stay in one place for too long, they become familiar with these ‘goro boys’ and start extorting money to issue licenses fraudulently. I have evidence on this and have already launched an investigation,” he stated.
To curb these corrupt practices, Kotei announced that staff transfers will be enforced to prevent employees from developing deep-rooted connections that lead to malpractice. He emphasised that his administration is committed to restoring integrity within the DVLA.
“Some employees are here to genuinely serve the country, but others are only focused on making money through illegal means. This must stop. Any staff caught engaging in illegal licensing will face prosecution,” he reiterated.
Julius Neequaye Kotei assured Ghanaians that his leadership will prioritise transparency and accountability, ensuring that only qualified drivers are granted licenses through the proper channels to improve road safety across the country.
