The Minister for Interior, Muntaka Mubarak, has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to retooling the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) as part of efforts to strengthen national security.
During his maiden working visit to the GIS, he outlined plans to modernize security services by leveraging public-private partnerships (PPP) and technology to enhance operations.
He also disclosed that cash transactions would soon be eliminated across all agencies under the ministry to improve efficiency and transparency.
Acknowledging funding challenges, Muntaka Mubarak emphasized the need for strategic partnerships to enhance service delivery.
“We will be looking at how we can partner private individuals, whether profit or non-profit, to improve the services within the Ministry of Interior,” he stated, assuring that any PPP initiatives would be carefully structured to protect national security.
He further urged immigration officers to remain committed to safeguarding Ghana’s borders and supporting the government’s broader development agenda.
