Justin Frimpong Koduah, the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has reported that operatives from the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) are currently present at the residence of Reverend John Ntim Fordjour, the Member of Parliament for Assin South. He made this statement on his Facebook page on Wednesday, 9th April, 2025.
This action is part of an ongoing investigation into allegations concerning suspicious flights that allegedly landed at Kotoka International Airport (KIA) in March 2025.
Rev. Ntim Fordjour had earlier raised concerns about these flights, suggesting potential involvement in illicit activities such as drug trafficking and money laundering. In response to these claims, President John Dramani Mahama directed key security agencies—including the NIB, the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC), the Police Criminal Investigations Department (CID), and the National Security Coordinator—to collaborate with Rev. Ntim Fordjour to thoroughly investigate the matter.
The presence of NIB officials at Rev. Ntim Fordjour’s residence indicates the seriousness with which the authorities are treating these allegations. While specific details of the investigation remain confidential, the involvement of the NIB underscores the government’s commitment to addressing potential threats to national security and maintaining Ghana’s stance against illicit activities.
These developments have generated varied reactions within the political landscape. Some opposition members have questioned the validity of Rev. Ntim Fordjour’s claims, urging for concrete evidence to substantiate the allegations. Conversely, supporters argue that the MP’s concerns warrant thorough investigation to ensure transparency and uphold the country’s integrity.
As the situation unfolds, the public and political stakeholders await further information from the ongoing investigations. The outcome of these inquiries is anticipated to have significant implications for Ghana’s efforts in combating drug trafficking and ensuring the nation’s security.
Here are some reactions from Ghanaians.
