The narcotics control board has destroyed one hundred and sixty seven kilogrammes of seized cocaine exhibits.
They include parcels which were seized over the last year.
The destruction of the illicit drugs at the Teshie Shooting Range is a prelude to the commemoration of International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, which falls on June 26 every year.
Deputy executive secretary of the Narcotics Control Board, Mark Ewuntogmah, told Joy News the exercise is a mark of their determination to clampdown on drug trafficking in Ghana.
