In a gripping investigation, Galoma, a rapper from K ver, recounts the tumultuous saga surrounding the notorious boat, The Rich Harvest, alleged to be involved in a drug trafficking operation that has heavily affected the islands. The ship, which gained notoriety in 2017, had George Saul, nicknamed 'Fox', as its alleged mastermind still avoiding justice in the UK. Galoma reflects on how K ver's strategic location between South America and Europe has become a hotspot for trafficking, with an alarming annual statistic of 50 tons of cocaine reportedly crossing West Africa, contributing to local drug issues. The investigatory journey led him to learn about personal connections to drug use, as he opened up about battling addiction from a young age in the city of Prior. His formative experiences with drugs starkly contrast the law enforcement efforts in K ver, where outdated equipment significantly hinders the Coast Guard's ability to combat trafficking. With the assistance of investigative journalists, Galoma's quest to uncover the truth not only aims to pursue Fox, highlighting a wider narrative about systemic failures and the human toll of drug trafficking. A poignant analogy can be drawn between navigating the complex world of drug trafficking and surfing a treacherous wave; one needs both skill and seasoned caution to avoid a devastating wipeout.
