Canadian citizens have been kidnapped in Ghana and are working closely with local authorities to resolve the matter, the Canadian Foreign Ministry said on Thursday. The families of the abductees had learned of the matter and were receiving assistance without giving further details.
The Foreign Ministry did not confirm reports in local media that the abduction took place on Monday and that two women were kidnapped.
Ghana News 3 said they were in the country as part of a university exchange program in the city of Kumasi.
