Tarzan mocks Ghana’s new-government new-drivers’ licensing regime

Politician and Energy specialist, Dr. Charles Wereko-Brobby has reacted mockingly to ongoing efforts to introduce, yet again, another drivers’ licence for Ghana.

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority, which only a couple of years ago introduced and has since been running a biometric licence it claimed would eliminate faking and fraud, now says it has a better idea for an all-purpose licence regime.

Amidst promises of - difficult to clone, doing away with the incidence of fake licenses, cutting out middlemen - the DVLA says the soon to rollout new drivers’ licence will be a smart card embedded with a chip loaded with the owner’s biometric details.

On Wednesday morning Dr. Wereko-Brobby, otherwise called Tarzan tweeted rather mockingly thus; “Ghana, the land where one passes the driving test once, but have to obtain a new Drivers Licence with Every Change of Government.”

In response to his tweet, former football coach and radio host Nana Kwaku Agyemang‏, said the observation is "So true", while another, Maestro Asafo-Adjei‏ replied, "Very nonsensical!" Seven others have retweeted the post.
