The Ghana Armed Forces has announced the completion of the selection process for the first batch of recruits, with a total of 2,000 individuals set to commence training as part of a broader nationwide enlistment exercise.
According to a statement issued by Captain Veronica Adzo Arhin, the selected recruits are expected to report to their respective regional selection centres across all 16 regions on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, at 9am to collect their appointment letters and prospectus.
The Armed Forces noted that this initial group forms part of four batches to be trained.
It also assured applicants who were deferred due to treatable medical conditions during the screening process to seek appropriate care, indicating they would be reconsidered at a later stage at no additional cost.
The statement further revealed that the first batch includes 18 individuals who sustained injuries during the El-Wak Stadium stampede last year, as well as five others sponsored by families of victims of the incident, in recognition of the tragedy.
The Military expressed appreciation to all 16 Regional Administrations for their support in decentralising the recruitment process, in line with government policy.
It also encouraged remaining applicants to remain patient, assuring them that further selections would be made from a pool of high-performing candidates, with additional considerations being given to individuals from Sikaman in the Ashanti Region who assisted in last year’s helicopter crash rescue efforts.
