The Interior Minister, Alhaji Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, told every security agency to start using the National Signals Bureau. He said this during the opening of the NSB's new regional command in Sunyani, located in the Bono Region. He stressed that the facility is a shared tool for better intelligence and faster reactions, meant to help all agencies work together more effectively.
He explained the command center exists for the public's benefit, arguing that national progress needs a peaceful setting. The National Security Coordinator, COP Abdul-Razak Osman, also spoke, stating that current security relies on intelligence gathering and analysis, not just reacting to visible crime. He warned that while Ghana is peaceful, modern threats like illegal mining, cyber fraud, land conflicts, and arms smuggling in the Bono region require proactive, tech-driven defense.
The NSB Director General, Dr. George Atta-Boateng, called the Bono Region a key economic and transit area. He noted it's important that farms, business centers, roads, and growing cities need smart, local, and advanced security. The new NSB command is designed to boost regional coordination, improve intelligence work, aid operations, and offer a secure spot for classified activities. The minister urged the public to accept the facility and support its staff as a shared asset for collective safety.
