Customs officials working with the Ghana Police Service have stopped a large amount of cocaine at the Tema Port. The drugs were found inside a shipping container.
The container had traveled from a port in another country. Officials discovered the illegal substances during a standard inspection.
The exact value of the seized cocaine is not yet fully known but is described as worth millions of Ghana cedis.
This operation is part of ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking into Ghana.
Authorities are continuing their investigation into the drug syndicate responsible for this shipment.
The police stated that smugglers often try to hide drugs in cargo to avoid detection.
This bust highlights the importance of careful checks at Ghana's entry points.
Further details will be released as the investigation progresses, according to a police statement.
