The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has issued a travel advisory to its members, raising an alarm over alleged plots to frame its members with cocaine.
In a travel advisory signed by its National Vice Chairman, Henry Nana Boakye, popularly known as Nana B, he advised NPP members, supporters and sympathisers travelling through Ghana’s airports and seaports to exercise heightened vigilance amid concerns over attempts to implicate innocent travellers in narcotics-related offences.
According to Nana B, the NDC government had become desperate amid public scrutiny of its handling of narcotics-related matters, warning its members to be alert over possible attempts to “equalise”.
He stated, “Amid growing public scrutiny of the government’s shambolic and disgraceful handling of narcotics-related matters, the NDC and John Mahama regime has become very desperate, and elements affiliated to the NDC may go to any lengths to rope in innocent members and sympathisers of the NPP just to equalise for their horrible record in the control of cocaine and other narcotics in our country”.
“NPP members, supporters and sympathisers, travelling through Ghana’s airports and seaports are strongly advised to exercise heightened vigilance and take extra precautions to safeguard themselves against any potential attempts to implicate innocent NPP travellers in narcotics-related offences just for political equalisation,” the statement said.
The NPP called on its members to retain luggage tags and other relevant travel documents, preserve evidence of any suspicious incidents and promptly report them to airport security or the appropriate authorities.
“Stay alert, remain vigilant, protect your belongings and travel responsibly,” the advisory urged.

COCAINE SCANDAL: TRAVEL ADVISORY TO NPP FUNCTIONARIES AND SUPPORTERS TRAVELLING THROUGH GHANA’S AIRPORTS AND SEAPORTS. STAY HIGHLY VIGILANT
Amid growing public scrutiny of the government’s shambolic and disgraceful handling of narcotics-related matters, the NDC and John Mahama regime has become very desperate, and elements affiliated to the NDC may go any length to rope in innocent members and sympathizers of the NPP just to equalize for their horrible record in the control of cocaine and other narcotics in our country.
NPP Travellers should remain alert to the possibility of unlawful interference with their luggage or attempts by unscrupulous individuals to introduce prohibited substances like cocaine and other illicit drugs into their personal belongings.
In view of recent cocaine-related arrests and drug trafficking incidents involving Ghanaian nationals in foreign jurisdictions under President Mahama and the NDC, all NPP members, supporters and sympathizers, travelling through Ghana’s airports and seaports are strongly advised to exercise heightened vigilance and take extra precautions to safeguard themselves against any potential attempts to implicate innocent NPP travellers in narcotics-related offences just for political equalisation.
To protect yourselves, all prospective travellers are urged to observe the following precautionary measures:
1. Securely lock, protect, and wrap Your Luggage to avoid any unwholesome interference
2. Maintain Personal Control Over Your Belongings
3. Do not accept unverified Items or parcels; if possible, completely avoid accepting parcels to be given to a third party
