NACSA, through its Upper West Regional Office, has successfully concluded a two-day public sensitisation programme at the Upper West Regional Central Prison in collaboration with the Ghana Prisons Service.

The engagements reached 150 inmates and 87 senior and junior prison officers, equipping participants with practical knowledge on Ghana's firearms laws, the dangers of illicit small arms proliferation, responsible firearm ownership, and the critical role every citizen and institution plays in promoting peace and national security.

The interactive sessions also provided an opportunity to address key questions on firearm licensing, arms trafficking, prohibited weapons, and the legal consequences of illicit firearm possession, reinforcing the importance of public awareness and inter-agency collaboration in combating illicit arms proliferation.

Through sustained public education, NACSA remains committed to building safer communities and advancing a peaceful, secure, and gun-violence-free Ghana.
