A lecturer at the Kumasi Technical University, Dr. Ishaq has sounded the alarm on the dangers of the cocaine business in Ghana, warning that it could become a serious issue if left unchecked.
In an interview on the Wontumi morning show, Dr. Ishaq revealed that the cocaine trade is often accompanied by money laundering, a practice that can have severe consequences for the country’s economy.
According to Dr. Ishaq, the cocaine business is a complex issue that can lead to a range of problems, including terrorism financing, economic instability, and delay. He cautioned that if the situation is not addressed, it could distract the government and have far-reaching consequences within a short period, potentially within three months.
“The cocaine business is a serious issue that requires urgent attention. If we don’t take proactive measures to prevent it, it could lead to a situation where our economy is severely impacted, and our government is distracted from addressing other pressing issues.”
To combat this threat, Dr. Ishaq calls for a multi-faceted approach that involves government agencies, law enforcement, and the public.
“This requires a coordinated effort to disrupt the supply chain, apprehend those involved”
