Akwatia Member of Parliament Bernard Bediako Baidoo and Imani Africa Vice President Kofi Bentil Esq. engaged in a strong disagreement on JoyNews' Newsfile program. The discussion took place on Saturday, September 19.
They debated the circumstances surrounding the departure of nearly 3.9 tonnes of suspected cocaine from Ghana. This large quantity was later seized in France.
Mr. Bentil raised concerns about how a consignment of such significant size could pass through national checkpoints. He questioned the effectiveness of the systems in place.
The exchange highlighted ongoing questions about drug trafficking routes and controls. Authorities have not yet provided a full explanation for the cocaine's departure.
