Authorities at the Tema Port have seized opioid drugs worth approximately GH₵20 million in a collaborative effort led by the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).

The shipment of various controlled substances, reportedly destined for Niger include;

Rahol Tapentadol 250 mg – 26 cartons

Tafradol Tapentadol 120 mg – 160 cartons

Timaking Tapentadol 120 mg – 40 cartons

Loperamide 2 mg – 190 cartons

Chlorpheniramine Maleate – 320 cartons

At a press briefing, Minister of Health Kwabena Mintah Akandoh emphasized the government’s commitment to preventing Ghana from becoming a hub for opioid trafficking, pledging stricter regulations and enhanced monitoring to combat the issue.

“In as much as we are interested in facilitating trade in this country, we will not allow Ghana to be a safe haven for opioids. And let me tell you that the president is personally interested in this matter. On my way here, he called me twice, and it tells you how important and critical this particular issue is”.
