NIB awaiting Bagbin’s approval to interrogate Ntim Fordjour – Kwakye Ofosu

The Minister of State in Charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has disclosed that the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) is awaiting approval from the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, to release the Member of Parliament for Assin South, Reverend John Ntim Fordjour, to assist with investigations into allegations of drug trafficking and money laundering.

According to the Minister, Rev. Ntim Fordjour has yet to respond to requests from security agencies following his claims that two aircraft recently landed in Ghana carrying drugs and cash.

Speaking on Face to Face on Channel One TV, Kwakye Ofosu emphasized the importance of transparency and suggested that the MP’s interrogation should be made public.

“The NIB wrote to the Speaker to release Ntim Fordjour. The Speaker is yet to respond to the NIB, as far as I am aware. Anytime the Speaker responds to it, he will be available for questions.

“I have requested that the interrogation be released to the public,” he stated.
