Ghana has dropped six places in the 2025 Global Peace Index, ranking 61st worldwide and falling out of the top five most peaceful countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The decline has sparked concern among citizens and security experts, who say it highlights growing threats to national stability.

Analysts argue the report should serve as a wake-up call for policymakers to strengthen security measures.

They are calling for urgent policy reforms to safeguard peace and prevent further deterioration in the country’s ranking.
