SOURCE: GHANA MUST KNOW FORUM----------- ***Ladies and gentlemen of the media, with your pens and the help of a calculator, lets us all do these simple mathematics. This mathematics which can even be done by a BECE candidate who cannot write his final exams without questions leaks, and could not be done by President Mahama nor Seth Terkper as they want us to believe, will reveal to us how deliberately corrupt and financially reckless they are as far as the management of our economy is concerned. The Eurobond attracts an interest of 10.75% to be paid by the government of Ghana, $250m out of it is illegally deposited in UBA, a private bank. The bank, which is UBA in turn, decides to buy GHS 950 million of government Treasury bills at a rate of 24% (using the 1-year note); the bank would have made a hefty GHS 233 (USD 61) million profit in nominal terms just by loaning this same money to the government. Friends in the media, if this is not a 419 scam visited on unsuspecting Ghanaians by President Mahama, then what else is it? – Meanwhile, this is a President who is walking freely on the streets of London shamelessly mocking Ghanaians that he has never taken bribe, my goodness!!! Note therefore, that Government is paying 10.75% 24% which is 34.75% interest on the money he borrowed from the capital market. Government is paying 24% interest on his own money to a private firm. Is this sheer wickedness, foolishness, witchcraft or what? We cannot help, but agree with Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings when she posited few days ago and I quote, “If you borrow money at a high interest rate to lend it to another at a low interest rate then borrow your own money back from them at a high interest rate, you are either not wise, a thief or both. No wonder their campaign message of “vote for us so they don’t jail us, it’s time to save Ghana from this criminality”. For the GHANA MUST KNOW forum, we believe they are both – unwise and thieves, and more so 419 scammers

Mr. Danso is perfectly right. This is what they have been doing for ages now and one wonders where the excess money they make goes to. They know they want only 300 men to enlist but they print more than 10,000 forms. All these forms are bought even by the illitrates ones and at the end they are not picked. First of all, how much does the production of one form cost before selling it now at GHc100. In this case, I believe they will take not more that 500 applicants, looking at the available accommodation at the various training schools, and the availability of police accommodation currently. We need to be considerate of the plight of ordinary poor Ghanaian job seekers. The previous years had been worse. The government should institute an audit or a probe into the excess money made in the previous years to find out what had been done with it. Some of us know that it went to line the pockets of the few at the top. What do we call this ? Theft, fraud or what? The public want to know. I would like somebody to take this up into the public domain as I cannot have the say as Mr. Danso has done. There is too much abuse in the system that needs
to stop.

I also have the same thought.The Police Administration knows very well that they don't have sufficient facilities to recruit large numbers. l don't think they will recruit more than 500. They are just capitalizing on the plight of the unemployed youth to make them more miserable.Yesterday when l listened to Supt Cephas Arthur the PRO of the POLICE SERVICE during PEACE FM 6 o'clock evening news and my suspicion heightened. The same situation is happening in our tertiary institutions including the nursing training colleges.In a country where the private sector is not expanding to absorb the teaming unemployed youth we did not expect the public institutions especially the Police to compound the situation throwing a bait like this into this desperate situation.This is why Ghana at this time of her life needs a strong,no nonsense patriotic leader to put senses into the few greedy individuals who are taking majority of us to ransom.

Even if the Ghana Police announced that they were going to recruit only one person the people buying the form not will still go in for it. This is because the purchase of the form is not an end in itself. There is still going to be a competitive written examination where the best performers will be shortlisted for interview after which deserving candidates will be selected for training.

Why did the police not put the application form online? Waht is so special about the form that they sold them in banks. Ok if they want to raise money to meet the cost of processing application process they should charge the very minimum, GHS5. The govt gives police money to cover all their activities including recruitment. Ok if they want discourage people collecting more than one form then to charge is ok but not 100 cedis. Police should have told the public the number required and sell same numbers, ie. if we want to recruir 2000 people they should send out only 2000 forms and not one more!
