MTN Ghana has partnered with the Motor Traffic and Transport Department to launch safety instruction for company drivers and employees, beginning with Northern Business District personnel at the telecommunications provider's Kumasi facility. The collaboration addresses Ghana's escalating crash statistics, which reached 11,000 incidents between January and October, causing over 2,400 fatalities and 12,000 injuries.

Chief Superintendent Alexander Kwaku Obeng from MTTD emphasized the importance of capacity building for commercial fleet operators, noting that preventable collisions represent a significant national concern. The program covers defensive driving techniques, hazard identification, vehicle maintenance protocols and compliance with traffic regulations, including speed restrictions and seatbelt requirements.

MTN organizes the biannual training as part of occupational health standards, requiring participation from new hires and annual refreshers for existing staff. The company has received multiple corporate safety recognitions for its commitment to reducing road risks through strict policy enforcement and disciplinary measures for violations.
