A group called the Center for Public Opinion and Awareness, or CenPOA, is asking the government to stop charging people to apply for jobs in security forces. They say this includes the Ghana Police Service and other similar agencies.
CenPOA stated that charging these fees makes it harder for some qualified people to apply. They believe everyone should have a fair chance to join the security services.
The group issued a statement explaining their position. They feel that the current system is not right.
The organization wants to make recruitment into services like the police and military more accessible.
They argue that fees can prevent talented individuals from pursuing careers that serve the nation.
CenPOA hopes their call will lead to a policy change. They want to ensure that joining Ghana's security sector is based on merit, not on the ability to pay application fees.
