The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has warned against any persons or entities seeking to acquire sale of cannabis licenses to do so through the authority.
It says NACOC has not authorised, accredited, or certified any individual, group, or association to facilitate, broker, or secure the acquisition or issuance of cannabis licences.

Francis Opoku Amoah warned that no prospective applicants should make any financial comment to any person or persons acting on behalf of the authority
“NACOC cautions all prospective applicants not to pay money to anyone purporting to act as an agent, intermediary, or consultant for cannabis licensing” adding that “all licensing processes will be conducted only by the Commission, not through third parties” it warned.
NACOC urged the public to exercise restraint at a time Parliament is finalizing works on the amended legislation governing licensing of cannabis activities.
“The public is advised to exercise patience and allow Parliament to complete its work on the procedures for acquiring a cannabis licence and to pass the relevant bill” it intimated
