This, he said, would help expose any wrongdoing and also safeguard the reputation of the country.

He has, therefore, assured Rev. Fordjour that the committee will take urgent steps to invite the various security agencies and the National Security Coordinator to brief the committee on the outcome of investigations conducted so far in relation to his request when Parliament reconvenes.

Mr Agalga, who is also the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa North in the Upper East Region, was responding to a request by Rev. Fordjour for the committee to invite the security agencies to brief Parliament on investigations being conducted into the incident at the KIA, the raid at Sapeiman and the cocaine seizure, which he (Rev. Fordjour) said were of public interest.

In a letter dated April 2, 2025, and addressed to the Chairman of the Defence and Interior Committee, Rev. Fordjour, who is also the New Patriotic Party (NPP) MP for Assin South in the Central Region, urged the committee to summon the security agencies — the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC), and the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) to appear before Parliament on Monday, April 7, 2025.

"I write to request for the committee to invite the above-stated security agencies under the oversight of the Committee on Defence and Interior to attend upon the Committee on Monday, April 7, 2025, at 1100 hours in the Committee Room of Parliament," the letter read.

“The purpose of this proposed meeting is to afford the agencies the opportunity to brief the committee and provide updates on investigations being conducted into high-profile reported incidents of serious and urgent public interest,” the letter further stated.

In the letter, he outlined the need for a briefing on three critical incidents: the first involving a National Security-led operation on February 9, 2025, in Sapeiman, which resulted in the discovery of twelve 20-foot containers filled with gold bars and various currencies.

The second focused on two significant cocaine seizures in March, with a combined value of $470 million while the third is on two flights, AirMed Flight N823AM and Cavok Air Antonov An-12B, that landed at Kotoka International Airport from Gran Canaria on March 12 and March 20, respectively, and reportedly departed on March 25.

Responding to the request in a letter, Mr Agalga urged the Assin South Legislator to instead comply with the directive from President John Mahama to collaborate with the security agencies in investigating the drug trafficking allegations.

“In view of the fact that the allegation made by your good self in relation to drug trafficking and money laundering with the involvement of two aircraft namely: AirMed Flight N823 AM and Cavok Air Antonov ANI2B which landed at the Kotoka Airport border on the commission of crime, it is important that you collaborate with the security agencies to expose any wrongdoing and also to safeguard the reputation of our beloved country,” he said.

“Subsequently, urgent steps will be taken to invite the agencies listed above and the National Security Coordinator to brief the committee on the outcome of investigations conducted so far in relation to your request when the House reconvenes,” he added.
