Government spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu has explained the two flights which have come under contention in Ghana were here due to technical reasons.
According to him, the Air Med aircraft landed at the Kotoka International Airport to fix spoiled tires, which took a number of days because engineers had to be flown into the country to get it fixed.
Making this known in a series of posts shared via social media he said “These pictures show engineers fixing damaged tyres on the landing gear of the Air Med Aircraft at the Kotoka International Airport. The damaged parts and engineers were brought in by a different aircraft,reason why it stayed here for three days.Don’t let anyone lie to you.
On the Cavok flight he mentioned “This is actual footage of the inspection of the Cavok flight by security officials at the Kotoka International Airport on arrival which shows it carried a cargo of oil drills and oil in jerrycans. Don’t let anyone lie to you and shift the goal post when pressed for evidence”.
However, the Ranking Member on the Defence and Interior Committee, Rev Ntim Fordjour insist his position on the issue is valid and wants the committee to be briefed by the security agencies.
