Ghana has now become a distribution hub for drugs
Everyone is looking at the problem from the wrong angle. We don't produce any of these drugs in Ghana. In recent months, there has been the following:
Ghana has become a distribution hub for drugs. Large quantities of methamphetamine and cocaine have been shipped out of the country, with MyJoyOnline Ghana reporting US$ 210 million in methamphetamine and US$ 261 million in cocaine.
The issue has raised concerns about Ghana's security, particularly at its ports, which are said to be compromised. According to MyJoyOnline Ghana, cartels are able to import and export goods with impunity, posing a risk to national security beyond just drugs.
The government has been urged to take action to address the problem. MyJoyOnline Ghana has called on the President to act, citing the need to protect the country's national security.
