The Minority in Parliament has raised concerns about two suspicious flights that landed in Ghana in March 2025, alleging that they carried cocaine and an undisclosed amount of cash.
At a press conference on April 1, 2025, the MP for Assin South, Rev. John Ntim Fordjour, claimed that the Minority Caucus intercepted intelligence indicating that an air ambulance landed in Ghana without any patient referral.
Details of the Suspicious Flights
- AirMed Flight NH23AM
- Landed at Kotoka International Airport on March 20, 2025.
- Departed on March 25, 2025, back to Gran Canaria, Spain.
- No patient was onboard, raising concerns about its true purpose.
- Allegedly carried cocaine and cash in various U.S. dollar denominations instead.
- Cavok Air Antonov AN 12B
- Arrived at Kotoka on March 12, 2025, from Gran Canaria, Spain.
- Stayed in the country for 13 days before departing on March 25, 2025, the same day as the AirMed flight.
- Gran Canaria is known for drug trafficking and money laundering, adding to suspicions.
The Minority Caucus emphasized the coincidence of both aircraft departing on the same day to the same destination, questioning the nature of their cargo.
Call for Full Disclosure
The Minority has called on National Security to:
- Reveal the contents of the cargo transported into and out of Ghana by these two flights.
- Investigate the possible involvement of drug trafficking and money laundering.
- Ensure that Ghana’s airspace is not being used for illicit activities.
This development has sparked national security concerns, with many awaiting the government’s response.
