The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has asked the general public to ignore rumours on social media that it is conducting a recruitment exercise.
In a recent statement, GAF confirmed that it has no plans to recruit applicants for the Forces at the moment. The press release urged those interested to rely entirely on the Daily Graphic and the Ghanaian Times for information about GAF enlistment and recruitment activities.
“The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has noted a fake press release on social media, directing interested applicants who want to join GAF to forward their summary report and contact information to a fraudulent email address: [email protected]. Additionally, the fake document makes reference to a purported press release by the Finance Ministry to GAF about holding on recruitment of new officers across all sectors due to financial constraints on the part of govemment,” part of the statement reads.
GAF emphasised that it has no intention of recruiting new members and advised the public to report any suspicious activity on the internet.
“GAF wishes to inform and caution the general public to disregard the fake document on social media as it is not conducting enlistment or recruitment as at date. To this end, persons interested in joining the military are advised to solely stick to the official and certified channels used by GAF to announce its enlistment and recruitment exercises, which are the Daily Graphic and Ghanaian Times newspapers.”
