The Greater Accra Police command has impounded a truckload of ammunition said to be on its way to Nigeria.

Two people, a Ghanaian and a Nigerian have been arrested, Greater Accra Regional Police Commander, Rose Bio Atinga confirmed in an interview with Joy News’ Annie Osabutey.

The ammunition include pump action guns, double barrelled guns and an unspecified number of cartridges, Atinga confirmed.

The truck was impounded Tuesday at Achimota on its way to Nigeria.

Rose Bio Atinga did not reveal the identities of suspects, except to say thorough investigations had begun.

The populous West African country is in a turbulent crisis after local terrorist group, Boko Haram killed dozens of people in multiple bombings.

The country has also been plaqued by a general nationwide strike after a petroleum price deregulation last week led to price hikes.
