He knows that the process has been very open and transparent, to the extent that he knows that those who are being called for training are Ghanaians who qualified and he admitted in his claims that some qualified but he wants the due process to be followed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Amankwah added that \u201cHis claims were based on hearsay. He himself admitted that he was told. And I think we should be serious in this country. In the wake of COVID-19 where people want to see that we are maximising the welfare of our people, we should not reduce the arguments to hearsay.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MP further indicated that recruits currently in training are persons who are back from home to resume training that was truncated due to COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGhana Immigration Service, for instance, 84,000 people applied and out of that number, over 41,000 were shortlisted. And for them to do justice to the shortlisted applicants through financial clearance through the Ministry responsible for Finance Ministry is what they are doing,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not the first time the Minority has accused the government of secret recruitment of persons into security agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, the Ranking Member on the Defense and Interior Committee, James Agalga, said the government is recruiting cronies into the police, prison services, among others without recourse to the laid down procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to that, the National Democratic Congress flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama had claimed that the government was also training party thugs at the Asutsuare Military Training Camp ahead of the general elections in December 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:\u00a0MyNewsGh.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Vice-Chairman of the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament, Collins Owusu Amankwah has said that the&nbsp;Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu is a hypocrite.
