According to him, the President and his appointees should strive and work hard to perfect the system and ensure law and order.

He said "Our leaders must minimise their mistakes…look too many mistakes have been committed in less than 100 days, the mistakes are too many, and they target the wrong people. Leaders must minimise their mistakes."

His comments come after some members of the Delta Force, a group associated with the New Patriotic Party, besieged the Kumasi Circuit Court last week and freed its members who were facing charges for attacking the Ashanti Regional Security Coordinator.

Reverend Prof. Emmanuel Martey speaking on vigilante groups in the country said the activities of such groups are a dent on the country’s democracy.

Addressing a  graduation ceremony of the Christ Apostolic University College at Kumasi in the Ashanti region, he said "The methods of the pro-violent vigilante groups like the Invisible Forces, Delta Force, Bolga Bull dogs, Western Crocodiles and all the rest with their unorthodox modus operandi have doubtlessly been a severe dent on the democratic credentials of our country and the earlier the government puts a halt to this national shame and puts damage control strategies in place, the better for our young democracy; Ghanaians are watching.

"You came in less than three months ago but Ghanaians are watching. Minimise your mistakes, violence is violence no matter who commits it, violence is violence no matter who perpetuates it, and must be condemned in no uncertain terms. Ghana must not be taken years or decades back, we must move rather forward into freedom and justice, progress and development in order to bring into fruition the vision of our political forebearers," he added.
