Parliament to summon Transport Minister over mysterious aircraft landings – NPP MP hints
According to Kennedy Nyarko Osei the committee is concerned about the lack of clarity and transparency on the matter and believes Ghanaians deserve full disclosure
The Ranking Member of Parliament’s Roads and Transport Committee, Kennedy Nyarko Osei, has hinted that the committee will summon the Minister for Transport Joseph Bukari Nikpe to answer critical questions surrounding two aircraft that recently landed in Ghana under suspicious circumstances.
In a post shared on his official Facebook page, the Akim Swedru MP outlined a comprehensive list of 26 questions that the committee intends to pose to the Transport Minister in the coming days.
The questions seek to unravel the purpose, flight paths, and cargo contents of the two aircraft—one operated by Cavok Air and the other identified as AirMed with registration N823AM.
According to Kennedy Osei, the committee is concerned about the lack of clarity and transparency on the matter and believes Ghanaians deserve full disclosure.
“As a committee responsible for transport, it’s our responsibility to seek briefing and full details of these aircrafts that have become a subject matter. The Ghanaian people must know the truth,” Osei wrote.
Background
The Minority in Parliament demanded full disclosure from National Security regarding two flights that landed in Ghana in early March and departed for Gran Canaria, a Spanish island, on 25 March.
The flights—an air ambulance and a private jet—allegedly remained in the country for several days before their departure, raising concerns over their purpose and cargo.
Ranking Member of the Defence and Interior Committee John Ntim Fordjour called on authorities to reveal the contents of these aircraft, expressing suspicion that they may have been used for drug trafficking or money laundering.
Meanwhile, President John Mahama has directed the National Security and relevant authorities to conduct a full-scale investigation into two aircraft that landed in Ghana earlier in March and departed for Gran Canaria, Spain, on 25 March.
