Ghanaians are just stupid. How do you think NDC will give any vacancy in the security services to ordinary Ghanaians. They will rather give it to their core supporters or sell it to the highest bidder. NDC has not changed.

Just 5000 vacancies is available and you all thought you were getting in? Ministers and MPs were given 10 slots each, that’s over 2500 slots gone already. The state just cashed out on you all.

This is a real indictment of our education system really. That we keep producing these youth who believe themselves to be educated but are clearly below the line.

This is one person whose too known attitude is what will do harm to the Ndc.
Only among a few who turns internal competitions into war battles. His extreme lack of indiscretion is what has been his bane for which his party the Ndc has had to bear the consequences.
Why this guy wasn't given the National Road Safety post instead of been in charge of Interior is what baffles most well meaning Ghanaians.
He doesn't listen to anybody but himself.
He gotta to be among the first in any anticipated reshuffle.

Assessment of the just ended release of results for officer cadets into the various government agencies.

The recent release of results for officer cadet applications to Ghana's security agencies has drawn valid criticisms and controversies mainly for its lack of transparency and fairness, particularly in handling aptitude test outcomes.

First, the core issues for which the aforementioned has drawn so much public sentiments is due to applicants denied immediate feedback on their aptitude exams; which is a standard practice in transparent recruitment that allows for self-assessment and trust-building. However, the opaque process, whereby disqualifications are announced without individual score breakdowns or rationales inevitably breeds suspicion, as candidates cannot verify IF results reflect true merit or external factors.

Second, the process smacks of lack of accountability. In pont of fact, no public criteria for pass or fail thresholds were predefined, nor was there an appeals mechanism, contrasting with merit-based systems like those in university exams. Consequently, this non-disclosure fuels legitimate doubts and/or questions, such as: Were shortlists based purely on performance, or influenced by quotas, connections, or errors?

Third, the process used elicits broader implications, namely; such practices erode public confidence in our security institutions (and particularly, the Ministry of Interior), essential for national stability. They risk selecting unmeritorious candidates while sidelining qualified ones, potentially compromising agency integrity. Thus, one could argue that a political "human face" cannot be ruled out, though initial impressions suggested administrative oversight, yet the pattern undeniably raises red flags!

Recommendations
- Mandate real-time result portals with anonymized scores.
- Publish aggregated stats (e.g., pass rates by region).
- Introduce independent audits, akin to academic standards.

Its about time all tests are based on aptitude test and not the usual chew and pour and forget. We are in TVET/STEM era so get used to this kind of testing. Do know why about 51% of SHS students failed the Core Maths? Because now the questions are based on applications which needs critical thinking. This is same as the Verbal and Quantitative aptitude tests that used to be in the Common Entrance exams of years ago. These type of questions tests your intellect and so always the smart people will pass. The 65% pass mark is even too low. Should be 75%.These questions are not too difficult. You just have to use your brain well

But why that decision. Ghanaians are still struggling with technology with poor internet services or connectivity and you want the young people to write online exams nationwide. Most of them do not have computers. It was not fair. Another thing is online exams generate scores instantly after submission. Why making the exams?
