NPP parliamentary candidates given 30 slots each to recruit party supporters into security agencies – Ato Forson alleges

The Minority has voiced alarm over what they view as covert and unlawful recruitment into the security services by the government.

During a press briefing, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, the Minority Leader, claimed that all NPP Parliamentary candidates have been granted 30 slots each to nominate NPP loyalists and supporters for positions in the security services, such as the Police and Army.

Dr. Forson called on President Akufo-Addo and the government to cease what he labeled as undemocratic practices. He stressed the importance of transparency and equity in the recruitment processes of the security sector.

“Notwithstanding the fact that the Minority raised serious concerns about the criteria adopted by the NPP government to recruit personnel into the security services, it has persisted in taking additional steps in the last few days that we have seen.”

“The NDC Minority can authoritatively state that not long ago, the NPP government again illegally and fraudulently has given out 30 slots to all NPP parliamentary candidates across the country for recruitment into the security services,” he alleged.

The Minority Leader affirmed that the Minority in Parliament would stay vigilant and resist any efforts to manipulate the upcoming elections.

He reiterated the dedication of National Democratic Congress MPs to safeguarding the integrity of the electoral process and thwarting any actions that might jeopardize democracy.
