Dr. Bernice Adiku Heloo, member of the Hohoe Parliament, deplores the harbadment of security agents in the presidency.

According to her, the agents stopped her Toyota Camry in the middle of the road in Accra in the name of recovering stolen government vehicles.

This, she said, occurred on three different occasions while she was driving her own Toyota Camry and reported that former government officials from the former John Mahama government had complained of similar harbadment.

The former Deputy Minister of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation said in an interview that she had crossed the airport zone in her Toyota Camry when strangers rushed to her, shouting, "Stop! Stop! "

"They said that they were security guards of the presidency and that they were going to investigate, nothing happened, they took my number."

"I followed up to the airport police station to find out if I had stopped in the middle of the road, harbading and embarrbading while people were watching us."

Ms. Bernice Adiku Heloo pointed out that there were more sophisticated methods to investigate stolen government vehicles.

"All they have to do is get the list of cars and their chbadis numbers. They can contact the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) to check and recall stolen cars and stop these harbadments.

"I'm calling on the presidency and the head of the security guards to find a better way to recover the stolen cars. They should write to people who have these stolen cars. I have not received any letters from them.

"Why?" Someone thinks my Toyota Camry looks like a government car, so they follow me and harbad me on the way to work.

When asked if she had drawn the attention of the House management to the problem, she indicated that, the first time, she had attracted the attention of management and that He had been advised to report to the police.
