Thousands of Ghanaian youth have besieged the El-wak sports stadium with their credentials hoping to be recruited into the Ghana Armed Forces.
The long queues started at dawn, on Monday, 19 July 2021.
The applicants, made up of mostly unemployed youth are being taken through various stages including screening, body and height check.
The huge number of applicants had caused vehicular traffic as job seekers queued from the ends of the walls to gain entry into the stadium.
Last week, the Minister of Finance, Mr Ken Ofori-Atta, gave financial clearance for the recruitment of close to 12,000 people into the police, prisons, immigration and education services.
A total of 11,840 jobs are available to be filled
The clearance covered the Ministry for the Interior, Ministry of National Security and the Ministry of Education
