Rev John Ntim Fordjour, MP for Assin South Constituency
Rev John Ntim Fordjour, the Ranking Member on the Parliamentary Committee on Defence and Interior, has challenged a report put out by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the Minister of State in Charge of Government Communications, regarding two suspicious aircrafts that landed at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) on March 20, 2025.
In a strongly-worded post on his X account on March 3, 2025, Ntim Fordjour challenged information put out by the minister.
He accused Kwakye Ofosu of being dishonest and attempting to hide information and evade accountability.
“In view of the above, and the disingenuous response from the government spokesperson, it is clear they are bent on hiding information and evading accountability. Our country cannot be allowed to suddenly become a hub for cocaine trafficking and money laundering. They must come again,” a portion of the post on X read.
On another score, he flatly denied that he had been invited by security agencies and that he failed to appear.
He subsequently dared the minister to produce the invitation letter he supposedly sent to him for the summons.
“Kwakye Ofosu lied when he claimed I’ve been invited by security agencies and failed to attend upon their invitation. No security or intelligence agency has ever invited me to assist them with any information. I dare Kwakye Ofosu to produce a copy of such invitation. I’m still waiting on them to collaborate with me in Parliament to undertake President Mahama’s directive, if the directive was not mere rhetorics,” the post on X stated.
These exchanges fall on the back of Ntim Fordjour’s call for an urgent briefing on the contents of two aircraft — AirMed Flight N823AM and Cavok Air Antonov An-12B — which he alleged had conveyed cocaine and cash into the country.
President John Dramani Mahama, after the claim, has ordered a full-scale investigation into the matter.

My attention has been drawn to a rather disingenuous and farfetched response from government by Kwakye Ofosu @FelixKwakyeOfo1.
