In a hard-hitting statement, the Centre for Democratic Movement (CDM) has warned that Ghana risks being labelled a “Cocaine Coast” if allegations surrounding suspicious international flights are not addressed swiftly and thoroughly.
CDM cautioned that lax oversight or the appearance of it could result in increased scrutiny of Ghanaian travellers and exports, a potential drop in investor confidence, and reputational damage on the international stage.
“Ghana must not become a permissive corridor for narcotic trafficking,” the group asserted.
“We advise the government to act decisively to protect the nation’s integrity.”
The CDM reiterated its call for full disclosure from the Civil Aviation Authority and National Security Secretariat, and for Parliament to conduct a transparent inquiry with support from international partners if necessary.
