“Out of about 120,000 applicants, they will continue selecting candidates in batches until they reach the 20,000 targets over the four-year period There is therefore an opportunity for young people who wish to serve in the security services,” President Mahama said.

President John Dramani Mahama has announced that the government has granted permission to the security services to recruit 20,000 personnel over a four-year period.

He said the Armed Forces received clearance to recruit 5,000 soldiers this year and that because of the very large number of applicants, they directed them to maintain a continuous recruitment process.
