These three girls have been missing for almost a year
The families of the three girls abducted from Sekondi-Takoradi who were kidnapped ask the police to apply the same urgency as that used to find the two Canadian women abducted in Kumasi to find their sisters.
Ruth Quayson, one of the sisters of one of the missing girls, told Citi News that the families were deeply disappointed by the government, as it seems that Ghanaian authorities almost always give alien life to Ghanaians.
She also urged the government to work to rescue abducted girls or to risk a vote.
"We are already disappointed with the way they have dealt with the problems of our sisters, because we all know that our leaders in Ghana especially treat strangers, we are very disappointed and we warn the government, at the end of the day we are the citizens here and we will do it. vote, "she said.
The two Canadian girls kidnapped in the Ashanti regional capital, Kumasi, were rescued by national security agents.
They were rescued Wednesday morning.
This comes after the Canadian authorities worked with the local police to find the girls.
Abduction of girls
Canadian girls were kidnapped at the Kumasi Royal Gulf Club, Ahodwo, around 8:25 pm on June 4, 2019.
Police said in a statement that the two victims were between the ages of 19 and 20 and "are volunteers of the NGO Youth Challenge International based in Ghana."
This development adds to the growing unrest in the country, particularly in the western region, where three young girls have still not been found after being reported missing for more than six months.
Following the kidnapping of the two Canadians, some embbadies and high commissions in the country, such as Australia and the United Kingdom, have warned their citizens against possible crimes in the country, including kidnappings.
Despite recent incidents, kidnappings are still considered a rare event in Ghana.
