The suspect, whose identity has not yet been officially released, is said to have concealed the illicit substance in a consignment of packaged gari (dried cassava flakes) that was intended for shipment abroad.

Twum Barimah said that they tracked the alleged businessman down at the Kotoka International Airport after observing his operations for a while and arrested him before he could transport the items abroad.

Another individual is also reportedly in NACOC's custody in relation to the case.

He noted that the management of the food packaging brand had been invited to the commission's headquarters for questioning.

Despite repeated prompting by Saddick Adams, Twum-Barimah declined to name the brand involved but said it was hugely popular and widely used by Ghanaians on a daily basis.

Authorities said investigations are ongoing to establish the full circumstances surrounding the attempted shipment and to determine whether other individuals may be linked to an alleged syndicate.
