Mahama exhibiting weak leadership, ‘pampering’ drug trade – Nana B

National Democratic Congress (NDC) General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong has raised concerns over a string of major drug seizures in Ghana, questioning whether the current government is effectively addressing the issue. In an interview on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen, Mr Kodua pointed to 12 significant drug busts within 18 months of the NDC administration, suggesting the seizures indicate a commercial operation involving complex networks.

He questioned why authorities seem unable to identify those behind the shipments, pointing to possible lapses or collusion within institutions responsible for monitoring Ghana’s borders. Mr Kodua urged President John Mahama to review his appointees, particularly those in charge of preventing drug trafficking, to ensure accountability.

He also criticized the persistence of certain heads of state institutions, arguing that the high-profile nature of the drug seizures indicates potential oversight failures. The NPP leader vowed to pressure the government until the necessary corrective measures are taken, accusing the current administration of diverting security resources away from addressing national security threats.
