Joy News investigation has uncovered how some officials of the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) demand monies to allow illegal entry into the country through unapproved routes near the Aflao border.
The officers were filmed on camera receiving various sums of money from the travellers on these routes.
This is in spite of President Akufo-Addo’s announcement of the closure of land borders to limit the spread of Covid-19.
