Is Ghana safely becoming a narcotic transit coast?

If Ghana successfully becomes a preferred transit point for international narcotics networks, the consequences could be serious because a country increasingly associated with narcotics trafficking risks: Damage to its international reputation; Increased pressure on its economy and legitimate businesses; Greater threats to national and border security; Increased exposure of young people to drug abuse and organised crime; and The weakening of public confidence in state institutions.

The objective must be to build a system that makes Ghana increasingly difficult for narcotics traffickers to exploit, since the narcotic trade has implications for our national security, economy, public health and social issues, and above all, it is an issue about the future of Ghana.

They can affect national security, the economy, Ghana's international reputation and the future of our young people.
