We took this job knowing That we may never get rich,
We have missed out so many holidays, Religious Activities and special occasions in order to protect lives,
We are expected to work miracles with very little funding/Motivation and do things other people are scared to do and even save lives.
It has been proven that our life expectancy is shorter than yours because of the Dangers We face, stress We go through and the sickness We get exposed to, and yet there are no hero movies about us.

We must give our life everyday for people we don’t know, have never met before and even those who don’t like us.
When our families are at home suffering alone, we are out there in the cold, confronting dangerous situations all in an efforts to protect lives and Properties.
We are warriors who gave oath to die for our people and Country.
We are POLICE OFFICERS
