We stopped at KIA over maintenance issues – AirMed Int’l responds to drug trafficking allegations


Read Time: 2 minutes

AirMed International has refuted claims of illegalities

AirMed International, an air ambulance and medical transport company at the center of allegations made by the Member of Parliament for Assin South, Rev John Ntim Fordjour, has clarified that its stop at Kotoka International Airport (KIA) was due to maintenance issues, refuting any links to drug trafficking.

The global medical company stated that it made multiple fuel stops, including one at Kotoka International Airport, where it encountered maintenance problems, GHOne TV reports.

It was also reported that a second aircraft, carrying replacement parts, supplies, and technicians, was dispatched and later arrived at KIA.

“Upon landing in Ghana, the aircraft experienced maintenance issues, and a second aircraft was dispatched with replacement parts, supplies, and technicians.

“AirMed International aircraft N823AM made multiple stops for fuel, including a stop at Kotoka International Airport,” GHOne TV quoted in a series of posts on April 3, 2025.

AirMed expressed confidence that their flights did not engage in any illegal activities, as speculated.

The company further stated that it has documentation and flight details to support its claims, emphasising its certainty in being vindicated.

“We are confident that flight documentation and details will demonstrate that the AirMed aircraft was not engaged in any illegal activities,” GHOne TV quoted the company as saying.

The controversy surrounding AirMed flights began when Assin South MP, Ntim Fordjour, raised concerns over two suspicious flights: AirMed flight NH23AM and the Cavok Air private jet Antonov AN-12B, both of which landed in Ghana in March.

According to the Minority caucus, the two flights, suspected of carrying cocaine and an undisclosed amount of cash, landed in Ghana between March 20 and March 25, 2025.

Addressing a press conference on April 1, 2025, Rev John Ntim Fordjour stated that the Minority caucus had intercepted intelligence indicating that an air ambulance landed in Ghana without any referral of patients.
