The Minority Caucus in parliament has raised concerns over the increasing incidents of piracy, drug trafficking, and money laundering in Ghana.

Speaking at a press briefing, Rev. John Ntim Fordjour, Ranking Member on the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament, highlighted the urgent need to preserve Ghana’s reputation as one of the most peaceful countries in Africa.

Rev. Fordjour stated, “Ghana in the past eight years, had been ranked favorably by notable global organizations as the second most peaceful country in Africa in respect of crime rate and globally, ahead of Australia and Canada.

“It is therefore imperative that under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama, Ghana continues to be safe and not degenerate into a safe haven for pirates, drug trafficking and money laundering.”

The Minority also revealed concerns about two suspicious flights—AirMed Flight N823AM and Cavok Air Antonov An-12B—that recently landed at Kotoka International Airport from Gran Canaria, a location known for drug trafficking and money laundering. Intelligence suggests these flights carried suspected cocaine and cash.

Addressing the allegation, AirMed admitted that its aircraft with tail number N823AM departed the United States of America for a scheduled international patient transport.

According to a spokesperson from AirMed, Ghana was on their flight plan as the aircraft made multiple stops, including one at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) in Accra.

“Upon landing in Ghana, the aircraft experienced a maintenance issue: two blown tires that required replacement.”

AirMed again admitted there was no patient on board their aircraft at the time it experienced the maintenance challenge in Ghana.

A second aircraft carrying the necessary replacement parts, supplies and two maintenance technicians was dispatched to Ghana to repair the first plane.

“Over the next several days, repairs to the aircraft N823AM were completed, and it returned to the US on March 25, following standard protocols and the required rest period for the flight crew.”

AirMed categorically added that their aircraft was not involved in any illicit or illegal activities in Ghana, and expressed readiness to fully cooperate in official enquiries to clear all doubts.
