Assin South Member of Parliament (MP), John Ntim Fordjour, says he stands by his comments regarding the two flights suspected to be linked with illicit activities.
According to him, he is not a coward to run from the truth, stressing that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government must prepare itself for more exposés.
“I am not scared of anyone, and if you follow my public advocacy, I venture into areas others fear to enter. We have just begun the exposés—there are many more to come in the coming weeks,” he declared in an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem.
Rev. Fordjour, who is a Ranking Member of the Defence and Interior Committee, alleged at a press conference on Tuesday that an air ambulance and a private jet may have been involved in drug trafficking or money laundering.
The flights in question—AirMed flight N823AM and Cavok Air’s Antonov An-12B—allegedly landed at Kotoka International Airport from Gran Canaria, Spain, before departing on March 25, 2025.
He noted that intelligence revealed the AirMed flight N823AM, an air ambulance, did not transport any patients but allegedly carried suspicious cargo suspected to contain cocaine and US dollars.
President John Mahama has since ordered the National Security and relevant authorities to conduct a full-scale investigation into the allegations, tasking them to immediately and fully collaborate with the lawmaker.
However, the former Deputy Education Minister has described the order as unnecessary.
He stated that he has made the details of the information available to him public, hence the onus now lies on the security agencies to speak to the issues.
“I have provided enough information, and that is why they must release the details. The President’s tweets calling for collaboration are neither here nor there.
“Two flights arrived in the country—National Security should tell us what they brought in or took out. If they have questions, I am in my office in Parliament,” he stated.
