A group called the Center for Public Opinion and Awareness has asked the government to stop charging fees for people who want to join the country's security forces.

This includes jobs in the Ghana Police Service and other security agencies.

The group believes these fees create a barrier for many qualified citizens.

They stated their position in a press release on March 29, 2026.

CenPOA feels that charging money to apply for public service jobs is unfair.

They argue that it discourages potential applicants who may not have the money to pay.

The organisation wants to ensure that recruitment into security services is based solely on merit and suitability.

Ending application fees would make these opportunities more accessible to all Ghanaians.
