10 recruits dismissed for defying phone ban – Interior Minister

Muntaka Mubarak also revealed that more than half a million people applied during the latest security services recruitment exercise, but only about 10,000 were selected for training, underscoring the process's highly competitive nature.

The Interior Minister, Muntaka Mohammed Mubarak, has disclosed that at least 10 recruits have been dismissed from Ghana’s security services training schools for breaching a directive banning mobile phones during training.

Muntaka Mubarak said the dismissals were necessary to enforce discipline and ensure that recruits complied with the rules governing the various security services training schools.
