GAF Warns Against Middlemen As Enlistment Commences
The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has announced the commencement of the 2023 enlistment processes for both Regular Career Courses and Short Service Commission Officers.
In a communiqué, it warned against the use of middlemen in getting enlisted as it directed all interested persons to get a scratch card for online application at postal offices across the country.
“The scratch cards for the online application are on sale at GH¢350.00 each across the country at designated Ghana Post offices listed in the advert. The portal for the online application has been activated hence interested persons can log on to http://apply.mil.gh to apply.”
It noted that the closing date for the online submission is November 19, 2023.
Middlemen
According to GAF, the enlistment process does not utilize middlemen and therefore interested persons must avoid resorting to such.
“GAF wishes to remind the general public that it does not employ middlemen or charge fees for enlistment.
“The public is therefore strongly advised to desist from paying monies to any person(s) who present themselves as agents or middlemen with the promise to help potential applicants enter the Ghana Military Academy.”
Additionally, it directed prospective recruits to report such middlemen.
“The Ghana Armed Forces further wishes to state that individuals who present themselves as middlemen, intermediaries or agents demanding payment in order to assist any candidate(s) should be reported to the nearest Military Installation or Police Station.”
It highlighted, “In the same vein, interested applicants who choose to pay monies to purported agents for help are equally culpable in the fraudulent act.”
