Accra: The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has successfully destroyed over 150,000 kilograms of various illicit drugs seized between 2021 and 2024.

The destruction of these narcotics forms a critical part of NACOC's mission to safeguard citizens and prevent the societal impact of drug abuse. Dr. Kenneth Adu-Amanfoh, Director-General of NACOC, emphasized the importance of this action, pointing out that each kilogram of these substances represents potential harm to lives, families, and communities.

He stressed the need for prevention, education, and rehabilitation as essential components of a broader strategy to combat this problem. He also noted the significant progress Ghana has made in dismantling drug trafficking networks and safeguarding communities. Ongoing efforts to enhance cross-border cooperation and strengthen national policies demonstrate a strong commitment to citizen safety.
