Under-pressure CID boss Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah has said she was misunderstood when she announced three kidnapped girls have been located.
The CID Director-General told Accra-based Atinka TV, she ‘wanted to give the families hope’ by that announcement, conceding, the location of the girls remains unknown.
That ‘we know where the girls are’ and “they are safe...very soon they will be brought back home” comment on April 4, sparked fresh pressure on the criminal investigations body to produce the three girls from Takoradi in the Western region kidnapped at different times since August 2018.
The family of one of the victims, 18-year old Ruth Love Quayson, cast doubt on the CID boss’ announcement.
Rebecca Quayson, a sister to the victim, said Tiwaa Addo-Danquah made no such revelation to her mother although they had spoken a day before her press conference.
“I don’t believe”, she said, explaining only a ‘face to face’ encounter will be sufficient.
The Commissioner of Police Maame Tiwaa Addo-Danquah has been criticised not only by her former boss Bright Oduro but also the Attorney-General Gloria Akuffo who said the comment was regrettable and could endanger the lives of the girls.
The CID boss who could be the next Inspector-General of Police feels her comments have been misinterpreted. ‘Maybe people did not understand me well’ she said in Twi, a local language.
The opposition NDC has announced it is collecting signatures calling for the CID boss’ sacking.

so you cannot make one sensible statement without insulting...??? I agree with you that the lady goof big time and therefore must be removed but certainly do not agree with you on the insults. Wa gyimmmiii drrdrr
This lady is clearly NOT on top of her game. You gave hope by making such a big announcement? She should be sued for emotional torque and anguish.
HOPE? MAYBE U DONT UNDERSTAND THE WORD HOPE
This n0ns3nse must stop. She must resign or kicked out
She has to resign before end of this month. Keeping incompetent high profile national personal is a disaster to our mother land. If Nana keeps incompetent high profile like Maame Yaa then NPP is corrupt
So you have the brave to say this ***barred word*** words to parents that are weeping for their children, CID Boss u are a great disgrace and Akuddo Addo is the most ***barred word*** and idiotic President in Ghana records. So CHAIRMAN OFOSU AMPOFO 2nd invitation too is blackmailing i will definitely send you to NOUGOKPO or KLIKOR u will smell it okay
Madam paaa, what kind thing be dis?
This is what we get when super incompetentt people are given positions by incompetentt president
Did she really say this? And still at post? Ghanafuo we are jokers. Where’s the IGP? Where’s the Interior Minister? This doesn’t need a President’s involvement. If this woman really said this she can only be at post because she has a very strong connection at the Jubilee House. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!! me bo funu me. I really feel like throwing up. Madam this one de3 prove the writer of this report wrong. I am gobsmacked 😶 to my bones.
