In the early hours of today, a special operations team from the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) headquarters in Accra launched a surprise raid in Effiakuma, a suburb of Takoradi, targeting suspected drug hubs.
Acting on tip-offs, the officers swiftly swooped in on some locations in Effiakuma believed to be hotspots for drug activities. Several individuals were arrested, and quantities of illegal substances were confiscated during the operation.
The raid forms part of NACOC’s intensified crackdown on drug trafficking and abuse in the Western Region.
Authorities have confirmed that investigations are ongoing to unravel the networks behind the illegal trade and bring all culprits to justice.
