The Minority Caucus in Parliament has demanded answers from the National Security regarding the interception and seizure of a large stash of gold bars and cash, hidden in 12 containers at a warehouse at Sapeiman, in February 2025.
Addressing the press on behalf of the Minority, the Member of Parliament for Assin South, Rev , criticised the state security agency for failing to provide updates on the matter, specifically regarding arrests made and the quantity of gold bars and cash seized at the warehouse.
He also called on the government to disclose its plans for the seized items, emphasising the Minority's role in ensuring accountability and transparency. "Nearly two months after this operation, National Security has failed to brief the public on the status of their investigation relating to the culprits behind the billions of cash and gold stashed in the 12 containers and failed to disclose the actual quantity of gold and the specific amount of money retrieved during the operation and what the state intends to do with the gold and cash currently in the custody of National Security," he stated.
Ntim Fordjour further alleged a potential collusion between the government and the National Security to divert the 12 containers containing cash and gold bars.
