Under the bright sun at a bustling recruitment centre, hopeful applicants queued patiently, their faces a mix of nerves and anticipation. Overseeing the scene was the Minister for the Interior, Alhaji Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, on a mission to monitor the ongoing security services recruitment drive.
As he moved through the centre, the Minister’s satisfaction was evident. “I’m really, really happy that the wish of His Excellency the President to see these things done in a very decent and respectable manner is being achieved,” he remarked, echoing President John Dramani Mahama’s call for a transparent and corruption-free recruitment process.
Throughout the exercise, applicants were treated with dignity, provided with water, snacks, and a courteous environment. The Minister emphasized that those who step forward to serve the nation deserve nothing less. “People who volunteer to serve should not be seen as animals. They should be treated with respect and dignity,” he stressed.
Addressing concerns about irregularities, the Minister reassured the public that any anomalies were swiftly addressed. To further strengthen the integrity of the process, strict anti-corruption measures had been introduced, including a dedicated email system for reporting fraud and suspicious activity.
Hon. Muntaka appealed to both applicants and their families to report any attempts at extortion or manipulation, assuring them that the process was fair and based solely on merit. “Even if you don’t get selected, you’ll be satisfied that the process was fair,” she added.
The comprehensive recruitment process involved an online aptitude test and medical examinations, with final selections made transparently and strictly on merit.
As the visit drew to a close, the Minister reaffirmed the government’s commitment to building a credible and professional security service, one founded on transparency, accountability, and respect for every individual who answers the call to serve.
