Two Ghanaians, seven Nigerians arrested for attempting to cross Ghana-Togo border

for attempting to cross into Togo using unapproved routes.

The Ghanaians were lead by the Nigerians who were travelling from Ashiaman

but were arrested at Yegbekorpe, in the Akatsi North District.

Reports available to Kasapafmonline indicates that all nine motorbikes being used for the journey have been handed over to the Ave-Dakpa police station, while the two Ghanaians have been detained for further action.

The Nigerian nationals however have been allowed to travel back to Ashiaman.

The usage of illegal routes along the Ghana-Togo border has seen an insurgence since the closure of the main entry points; a situation many consider as a threat to curbing the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
