A fierce clash betweenn Felix Kwakye Ofosu and MP Rev. John Ntim Fordjour has erupted in Ghana over two aircraft that landed at Kotoka International Airport in March.
The controversy began when Fordjour alleged that the planes, identified as AirMed Flight N823AM and Cavok Air Antonov An-12B, were carrying illicit cargo, including narcotics and large sums of cash. His claims prompted a swift rebuttal from Kwakye Ofosu, who insisted the aircraft were thoroughly inspected and cleared, accusing Fordjour of fabricating a narrative to tarnish the government’s reputation.

The dispute escalated as Fordjour doubled down, questioning the transparency of the government’s response and demanding a detailed security briefing. He argued that the official explanation was vague and unconvincing, fueling public speculation about potential cover-ups. In response, Kwakye Ofosu released a video explainer, asserting that Fordjour had been invited to assist security agencies but declined, a claim Fordjour vehemently denied, challenging the government to provide proof.
The back-and-forth has drawn national attention, with President John Dramani Mahama ordering an investigation to address the growing unrest.
As Ghanaians await the probe’s findings, the incident has ignited debates about accountability and trust in leadership. Social media platforms are buzzing with opinions, some praising Fordjour’s boldness, others backing Kwakye Ofosu’s call for calm. With the nation’s reputation as a stable democracy at stake, this unfolding drama underscores the tension between political factions, leaving citizens eager for clarity on what really happened in the skies above Accra.
