Musician and creative personality Big Ghun has partnered with Betfox Ghana to launch a nationwide road safety campaign aimed at distributing more than 3,000 motorcycle helmets across the country.

The initiative comes amid ongoing concerns over motorcycle-related accidents. According to data from the Ministry of Transport, motorcycle crashes accounted for 1,345 out of 2,949 total road fatalities recorded in 2025—nearly 46% of all road deaths that year.

Additionally, data from the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) of the Ghana Police Service shows that between January and September 2026, the country recorded 2,151 road crash deaths and 12,230 injuries.

With motorcycles serving as a primary mode of transportation and a key livelihood source for many Ghanaians, the campaign seeks to encourage responsible riding practices and the consistent use of protective helmets by both riders and passengers.

The initial phase of the campaign began in Ashaiman, where Big Ghun and the Betfox team met with Ashaiman District Police Commander, DSP Orlando Joseph Adzokpa. The team donated protective helmets to the police department to support local road safety awareness before distributing helmets directly to riders on the streets.

While the project has an initial target of 3,000 helmets, the organizers intend to expand the outreach beyond Ashaiman to other parts of Greater Accra and additional regions nationwide.

Big Ghun stated that upcoming locations will be announced via his social media channels, and he expressed openness to scaling up the distribution if additional resources become available.
