NPP links resurgence of drug trafficking cases to NDC’s return to power
The National Organiser of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, has accused the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) of having a history of association with illicit drug trafficking.
The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) claims a resurgence in drug trafficking cases is linked to the return of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to power. NPP National Organiser Henry Nana Boakye, speaking at a press conference, alleged that the NDC's history of association with illicit drug trafficking is evident in recent drug-related cases following their return to government.
He cited the case of Nayele Ametefeh, who was arrested in November 2014 at Heathrow Airport in the UK with 12.5 kilograms of cocaine and sentenced to eight years and eight months in prison. Boakye argued that similar narcotics-related incidents under the current Mahama administration mirrored the developments recorded during the previous Mahama administration, describing it as disturbing.
The NDC has not been named as the party directly involved in any of these drug trafficking cases, nor has any specific individual or organisation been held guilty of any wrongdoing by the source.
