Interior Minister Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak has received a briefing from the Western Regional Security Council (REGSEC) on security operations and emerging threats during a working visit to the Western Region.
Mr Muntaka began the visit with a courtesy call on Western Regional Minister Joseph Nelson, as part of efforts to improve co-operation between the Ministry of the Interior, regional authorities and other stakeholders responsible for public safety.
He later met members of REGSEC to review the security situation in the region, ongoing interventions and issues requiring further attention.
The discussions focused on improving co-ordination between security agencies, strengthening collaboration and addressing concerns that could affect peace and stability across the region.
Mr Muntaka reaffirmed the Ministry’s commitment to working with Mr Nelson, REGSEC and other relevant partners to maintain peace, law and order.
As part of the visit, the Interior Minister is expected to meet personnel from all security and other agencies under the Ministry. Those engagements will examine their operations, the challenges they face and measures aimed at improving service delivery.
He is also due to meet religious leaders and traditional authorities to strengthen partnerships in support of peace, social cohesion and security.
The programme includes a visit to the Elubo Border, where Mr Muntaka will assess security and border management operations and inspect ongoing projects in the region.
The working visit forms part of the Ministry’s wider engagement with regional authorities to assess security concerns and improve the effectiveness of Ghana’s security architecture.
