Earlier this month, Officers from the Yendi Municipal Office of NACSA partnered with the NCCE (Yendi Municipal Office) to lead a vital security sensitisation drive. The joint team visited the Ghana Immigration Service Yendi Sector Command and the Ghana Prisons Service to advocate for a peaceful, gun-free nation.

During the interactions, the team expressed deep concern over the rising illicit proliferation of small arms within the Yendi municipal. The engagement underscored that erasing the threat of firearms is a collective responsibility that requires active, everyday vigilance from all law enforcement and correctional personnel. The session with the Ghana Immigration Service focused heavily on tightening border controls to block cross-border arms trafficking. Meanwhile, the engagement at the Ghana Prisons Service highlighted the long-term societal damage caused by illicit weapons and the need for even greater institutional collaboration.

The security agencies warmly received the delegation and pledged their full support to the peace campaign. Both commands agreed that fostering closer inter-agency cooperation and increasing real-time intelligence sharing are the most effective ways to eliminate gun threats and protect local communities.
