'Cocaine Coast Threat': South Africa Drug Bust Puts Ghana in Spotlight Again | Firstpost Africa
Watch this video as Firstpost explains how a series of high-profile international drug busts has placed Ghana under intense scrutiny, exposing the country's growing vulnerability as a major transit hub for transnational narcotics networks. The latest incident saw South African authorities arrest a 52-year-old traveller arriving directly from Accra at Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport with nearly two million Rand worth of suspected heroin. This arrest follows a massive seizure by French customs at Dunkirk Port, where officers intercepted 3.9 metric tons of cocaine worth $260 million hidden inside a plastic waste shipment originating from Ghana. In response, Ghanaian lawmakers have expressed sharp alarm over the reputational damage to the nation, demanding aggressive action against underlying cartel kingpins rather than minor couriers. President John Mahama has since convened security chiefs and issued a strict two-week ultimatum to present an inter-agency roadmap to secure Ghana's borders.
