Ghana Link Clarifies Reports on ‘Missing’ Transit Trucks, Says All 18 Accounted For
Ghana Link Network Services Ltd has clarified reports suggesting that six out of 18 transit trucks linked to Bill of Entry (BOE) 80226125039 were missing following an overnight enforcement operation, stating that all the trucks have been fully accounted for and verified.
In a press release issued on Friday, February 20, 2026, the company, which operates the electronic tracking systems at Ghana’s ports, said its tracking data, playback records and on-the-ground verification confirmed the locations of all 18 trucks.
According to Ghana Link, the six trucks earlier described in some media reports as “missing” were at no point lost to the tracking platform. The company said its field teams physically verified the locations of the trucks as of Thursday and Friday morning and transmitted the findings to the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority for any action required under the law.
The company explained that playback data showed the trucks remained on the declared transit route from Akanu to Kulungugu until authorities directed 11 of the trucks to the Tema Customs Transit Yard. It noted that because the yard is not part of the declared transit corridor, the diversion triggered a route deviation alert on the tracking system, which may have been misconstrued as trucks going missing.
Ghana Link said the six trucks were located and physically verified at various points, including Aflao, Accra Toll Booth, West Point Filling Station at Tsopoli, Galaxy Filling Station at Dowenya and Akanu, with their positions duly shared with Customs officials.
The company stressed that the incident reflects an enforcement-led control action rather than the disappearance of transit cargo, adding that all trucks under the BOE were traceable through its tracking system.
While acknowledging the seriousness of suspected breaches of the transit regime, Ghana Link said it fully supports lawful investigations by the Ghana Revenue Authority and other state agencies, including National Security. The firm reaffirmed its role in providing visibility over transit movements and pledged continued support for trade facilitation, revenue protection and economic growth.
