When contacted, Liberian Security authorities remained tight-lipped, apparently due to the nature of the seizure and fear to plunge the country into pandemonium.

Recently 100 million cocaine shipments were seized at the very Freeport of Monrovia, following a tipoff by U.S. Security Apparatus to its Liberian counterparts.

The seizure of the cocaine sparked mixed reactions in both Liberia and the world on the security at the Freeport of Monrovia.

Prior to the repeated and unprecedented discoveries, Liberia’s Freeport of Monrovia was one of the safest ports within the West African region when it was managed by both Liberian authorities and the pre-shipment giant BIVAC.

It may be recalled, in 2021, the government of Liberia abruptly canceled the contract of the International Company Bureau Veritas, (BIVAC), longtime operator in Liberia for pre-shipment inspection and Destination inspection.

Minutes after the abrupt cancelation, the government of Liberia brought in MEDTECH Scientific Ltd, based in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, a sole medical company, to manage the pre-shipment and post-shipment operations at the Freeport of Monrovia and other ports of entry.

Sources within MEDTECH Scientific Ltd, have hinted IPNEWS that MEDTECH Scientific Ltd, now MEDTECH Scientific Liberia Ltd., does not have the technical capacity to manage Liberia’s international pre-inspection of shipment for which the George Weah-led Administration awarded a 10-year contract, knocking out long-time pre-inspection specialist, BIVAC, and is now only conducting destination inspection without modern logistics and port scanning equipment.

Under this same MEDTECH Scientific Ltd, now MEDTECH Scientific Liberia Ltd, 100 million dollars value of drugs (Cocaine) landed and departed the Freeport of Monrovia without a trace. For more into this breaking news, login to www.independentprobe.com
