Ghana cannot be a transit point for cocaine—Ras Mubarak expresses worry

Former Member of Parliament for Kumbungu, Ras Mubarak, has expressed his disgust at recent cocaine busts from Ghana.

He believes it’s becoming a worrying feature and soils the hard-won reputation of the West African country.

In a social media post reacting to the cocaine bust in Spain, the former legislator said “This is embarrassing. We cannot be a transit point for cocaine”.

Several individuals have complained bitterly about the number of drug busts from Ghana under the current government.

President John Dramani Mahama convened an emergency high-level meeting at Jubilee House on September 17, 2026, following major international cocaine seizures linked to Ghanaian ports, notably a French customs seizure of nearly 3.9 to 5.2 tonnes of cocaine shipped from Ghana.

He directed that the Narcotics Control Board (reorganized as the Narcotics Control Commission, NACOC) be reinstated to its leading operational role regarding drug enforcement at the ports.

However, after the said meeting, there have been several busts of cocaine from Ghana, a worrying feature hurting Ghana’s image.
