The Mobile Money Advocacy Group Ghana has commended the Ghana Police Service for what it describes as swift action in arresting armed robbers targeting mobile money agents and their customers.

In a statement issued in Accra on April 16, 2026, the group expressed appreciation to the Inspector-General of Police, Christian Tetteh Yohuno, and the Police Administration for their response.

MoMAG said the prompt action by the police has brought relief and renewed confidence to mobile money agents, who play a key role in promoting financial inclusion and supporting economic activity.

The group noted that the recent arrests demonstrate the commitment of the police to protecting lives, safeguarding businesses, and maintaining law and order, especially at a time when attacks on mobile money operators had become a growing concern.

MoMAG urged the police to sustain the effort and continue implementing strong security measures to deter such crimes.

It also advised its members to remain alert, follow safety procedures, and work closely with law enforcement by reporting suspicious activities.

The group expressed optimism that continued action by the police will provide lasting safety for mobile money agents and allow them to operate without fear.

The statement was signed by National Secretary Kingsley J. Amoako-Atta, National President Edward Ofori Agyemang, and Operations Director Stephen Quarcoo Gorman.
