Smuggling of refined petroleum products from Ghana to Burkina Faso through Paga, the capital of the Kassena Nankana West District of the Upper East Region, has now been taken over by tanker drivers.

The illegal activity, which is regarded as the most lucrative business in the district, is said to be known to the security operatives in the town, but much has not been done to halt it due to their political influence.
