LIVE NEWSFILE: MP IMMUNITY OR IMPUNITY? - DRUG BUSTS ROCK GHANA - EOCO & NACOC UNDER SCRUTINY

*DRUG BUSTS ROCK GHANA! | MP BAFFOUR AWUAH – EOCO SHOWDOWN* Ghana’s national conversation heats up on *Newsfile* as two major issues take center stage: concerns over recent **drug busts and narcotics trafficking**, and the controversial attempted arrest of **Manhyia South MP and lawyer Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah by EOCO**. On the drug-bust discussion, the programme examines concerns about narcotics trafficking, the effectiveness of the *Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC)**, calls from the clergy for stronger action, and the recall of MPs. **Alexander Twum-Barimah, Deputy Director-General of NACOC, and Assin South MP Rev. John Ntim Fordjour* are among the Newsfile panelists discussing these issues. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="0"} The second major discussion asks: *MP IMMUNITY OR IMPUNITY?* The controversy follows EOCO's attempted arrest of *Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah* at the Accra High Court on September 23, 2026. EOCO says it had previously invited the MP to assist an ongoing investigation and describes the attempted arrest as part of lawful efforts to secure his attendance. Baffour Awuah disputes EOCO's account and has described the attempted arrest as unlawful. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="1"} The controversy has raised wider questions about **parliamentary privilege, the powers of investigative agencies, arrest procedures, and the limits of an MP's constitutional protections**. Newsfile examines these competing arguments rather than treating either side's position as settled fact. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"} Watch the full discussion as the panel examines: *DRUG BUSTS ROCK GHANA!* *MP BAFFOUR AWUAH – EOCO SHOWDOWN* *MP IMMUNITY OR IMPUNITY?* Share your views respectfully in the comments. *DISCLAIMER:* This video is presented for news reporting, commentary, education and public-interest discussion.
