Perfectly correct elsewhere GAF would be sued for deception. Why do you sell that high number of Forms when you know less than 10% had a chance to be recruited?There was no need inviting that large number of ppl to a center,when you know few had a chance to succeed. Unfortunately for GAF, it's a security institution so they shd be aware of the unemployment threat to the nation.

Military service should be compulsory for all graduates from colleges and universities, after a year or two, one can decides to remain in it or leave to look for another or suitable profession one desires. This way stealing and thievery going on by ministry of defense and GAF through selling of forms can be eliminated.

THERE MUST BE A CUT-OFF POINT FOR SLL RECRUITMENTS. IF THE ARMY DOES NOT MEET THEIR QUOTA FOR ANY RECRUITMENT EXERCISE THEY MUST INITITIATE THE EXERCISE AGAIN TILL THEY FIND THE RIGHT HUMAN MATERIAL AND THE NUMBERS REQUIRED FOR THE JOB.

NATIONAL INSTITUTIONS MUST STOP BENEFITING FROM THE BLOOD AND PAIN OF CITIZENS. OUR TAXES ARE MEANT TO ALLEVIATE OUR BURDEN NOT INCREASE THEM. GOVERNWNCE IS NOT MEAMT TO PUNISH CITIZENS AND CERTAINLY DEMOCRACY IS NOT A SILHOUETTE/EUPHEMISM FOR OPPRESSIVE RULE!!!

THIS NONSENSE MUST STOP NOW!!!

Knowing that they need just some few number of staff, GAF could have done this in slots. There are many scientific modern methods to do this recruitment without grouping ppl at a center.GAF. allowed political influence that is why this accident took place. NDC wanted to misinform us that there was fairness in the recruitment, by bringing everybody to one center, knowing very well that they've already filled the slots with protocol enlistment.

Even if the whole country want to buy the forms, the forms have to be sold and everyone given equal opportunity to be selected. This is commonsense. After documentation and physical examination, half gets disqualified. Then there is medicals before interviews, followed by criminal and background checks. Even during training, recruits run away. So what is this fake Analyst talk about?.

We need to start taking legal actions against some of these ills in the system. There are lots of abused we ignored for far too long. You know you have 200 slots but sell application forms to 20000 prospect. This is clear abuse of rights. Money spent buying those forms can served better purpose for those who will be dropped off

You have hit the nail on the head: the recruitment process in the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has become focused on profit-making, and it has backfired. The real perpetrators of this problem are at the very top, and they failed to recognize the damage their decisions would cause. They mistakenly believed that their men could easily handle the situation. I have never seen as many people as this during GAF recruitment.

Additionally, political parties, Members of Parliament, and other high-profile individuals also have their own candidates, which further increases the number of recruits. As a result, the army is becoming weaker because the most qualified individuals for the job are not being selected. One day, this will have serious consequences for us.

No state institution should sell forms to prospective applicants. Institute a cut-off point. Once you have the numbers required, CLOSE THE APPLICATIONS. If you do not achieve the required thresholds, put out ads for another round of recruitment. That is how civilized humans behave. We are not savages to commercialize citizens. This must stop now. What business has the NSA, NATIONAL SERVICE AUTHORITY charging service applicants fees on its website??? What is wrong with is. Why is wrong right and right wrong?? What sort of satanic psychology is that???
