National Security Operatives have arrested a Nigerian national for attempting to fraudulently acquire a Ghanaian passport.
Had the Operatives not arrived at the Passport Office in Accra on time, Don Ofori Donny would have successfully obtained a Ghanaian passport.
He had already used similar fraudulent means to acquire a birth certificate and a voter’s ID card.
