It was reported that two Nigerians have been arrested at the Aflao border by the Volta Regional Police Command for illegally importing several boxes of ammunition into the country. According to XYZ News' Volta regional correspondent, Emmanuel Atukpa, security personnel at the border became suspicious of the truck in which the Nigerians were traveling after it entered into the country. The police, so far,  have not been able to ascertain its intended destination. Emmanuel Atukpa reported that the police impounded the truck and carried out a thorough search inside the vehicle leading to the retrieval of more than 50 guns, which included short pistols and locally manufactured guns. He said the Police have failed to give details of the arrest saying the security team would meet over the issue before details are given tomorrow. The two Nigerians are however in Police custody with investigations still ongoing. A crowd is reported to have gathered at the border to catch a glimpse of the suspects and the ammunition. This is the second time Nigerians have been arrested in the country for importing guns and ammunition this year. In January, the Greater Accra Regional Police Command impounded a Nigeria-bound truck also loaded with a cache of arms and several boxes of ammunition.
