Adam Bonnah

Dr. Adam Bonnah is a security analyst and the Executive Secretary of the Small Arms and Light Weapons Commission in Ghana. He has been vocal about the threat of terrorism in the Sahel region, particularly following the recent attack on Ghanaian tomato traders in Burkina Faso by the extremist group Jama’at Nasr al-Islam wal Muslimin (JNIM). Bonnah emphasizes the need for heightened security awareness at Ghana's borders and the importance of legislative measures to combat the influx of illicit firearms. He remains optimistic about the passage of the Small Arms and Light Weapons Bill, which aims to strengthen the commission's ability to prevent arms trafficking and enhance national security.
