Armoury Store Managers Course Moves to Practical Session

Participants of the two-week Armoury Store Managers Course, organised by the National Commission on Small Arms and Light Weapons in collaboration with The Halo Trust Ghana, have begun hands-on practical training. The sessions focus on armoury layout, access control, weapon and ammunition accountability, and emergency procedures, equipping Armourers from security agencies across the country with skills to strengthen stockpile management.

During the opening session of the training, Executive Secretary, Dr. Adam A. A. Bonaa indicated that the practicals are vital to translating training into safer armouries nationwide. He commended The Halo Trust Ghana for technical support and thanked heads of security agencies for releasing their officers. He then urged the participants to take the training seriously, noting that daily decisions in armouries determine whether stockpiles remain secure.

Participants described the exercises as relevant and eye-opening, especially on documentation, storage, and security checks. The course forms part of the Commission’s mandate to prevent the diversion and misuse of illicit arms and will end next week with a certification ceremony.
