Kwame Sam-Brew indicated:

Even the head of all our security services isn't 173cm. This nonsense must stop. So this immigration officer was actually recruited because of his height and not brains. No wonder

Viral video from military recruitment

Months ago, a video showing an 'unending' queue of applicants hoping to get recruited into the Ghana Army surfaced online and gathered massive reactions.

Sharing the footage on his personal handle, Kajyjay, who had been one of the main faces behind the Fix The Country movement expressed his shock at the numbers.

Aside this queue, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that thousands had already filled the El Wak Sports Stadium in Accra to be recruited into the Ghana Army.
