"If we have to let the realities on the ground express themselves, I am not convinced that the security agencies are at the top of their job and, even looking at the statements of the head of the Criminal Investigation Department, COP Maame Tiwaa they can not convince we are aware of the problems, "he said.

Mr. Ablakwa's comments follow up on recent abduction issues in Ghana, which he described as an issue not to be treated in a partisan way.

He added, "If you continue to be partisan on this issue, some may decide to withdraw to find lasting solutions to the problem that will affect each one of us," he said.
