The Commission through its Greater Accra Regional Office, has extended its public awareness campaign on gun violence prevention to the Ayawaso North Municipality, reinforcing the Commission's commitment to working with local authorities to build safer communities.

Led by Mr. Mohammed Adinan, Programmes Officer, the Commission engaged Hon. Haruna Mohammed Awal, Municipal Chief Executive (MCE); Mr. Jamani Dramani, Municipal Coordinating Director (MCD); Assembly Members; religious leaders; and community stakeholders on strengthening community participation in preventing the proliferation and misuse of illicit firearms.

In Mr. Dramani's closing remarks, he underscored the importance of sustained public education in addressing emerging security challenges and affirmed the Assembly's commitment to collaborating with NACSA to deepen awareness and promote a gun-violence-free culture across the municipality.

The engagement highlighted the need for Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies' (MMDAs) inclusion in advancing public education, fostering community vigilance and supporting national efforts to prevent armed violence.

NACSA continues to engage the leadership of MMDAs as a proactive approach to community security and looks forward to sustained partnerships nationwide.
