The gun amnesty program shows Accra is turning in the most illegal weapons. The National Commission on Small Arms stated that the Greater Accra Region leads in firearms retrieved under their current amnesty initiative. Executive Secretary Dr Adam Bonaa revealed this after a visit with the National Chief Imam at the National Mosque in Accra. The program started on December first and runs until January 15th, 2026. It lets people surrender or register unlicensed guns with no arrest or prosecution.

Dr Bonaa said the outreach to the Muslim community relied on the Chief Imam's strong moral authority. He called the Imam a pillar of peace in the country and a central figure for peacebuilding. The Imam agreed to champion the program as an ambassador, using his influence to encourage the surrender of illegal firearms. Greater Accra Regional Police Commander DCOP Duuti Tuaruka, who joined the visit, reassured the public about the no-arrest policy. He urged people with illegal weapons to hand them in before the deadline.
