Some importers have requested the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) to investigate allegations that 28 containers were removed, transferred and diverted at Tema Port without the owners' consent. In a September 29, 2026 petition addressed to the GRA's Commissioner-General, the importers detailed the affected containers by their bill of lading numbers and requested an immediate, thorough inquiry.
They also reported the matter to the Tema Regional Police, who arrested several individuals connected to the incident. The issue emerged after owners noticed goods from one container being offloaded into a warehouse near the GHACEM area in Tema, sparking concerns over unauthorized container handling. The petitioners urged the GRA to determine how the containers were removed and what led to the goods' handling.
They expressed willingness to cooperate with all relevant authorities in the investigation. Attached to the petition were detailed lists of the 28 containers, including their bill of lading numbers and statuses.
