According to Pablo, he recently received a call from a female applicant who had been selected for training in the Armed Forces.
The applicant informed him that she was pregnant, a development that has affected her plans to attend the mandatory training.
Pablo noted that he has heard similar situations from several other female applicants, emphasising that pregnancy can require a careful reconsideration of one’s decision to join the service, as attendance at training is compulsory.
The officer extended his caution not only to female applicants in the army but also to those in the other four internal security services.
He urged all prospective female officers to take appropriate precautions to ensure they are physically ready for training, which is a critical step in securing their positions and completing the recruitment process successfully.

Fire officer educates security applicants on medicals
Meanwhile, a Fire Service Officer has taken to social media to guide applicants on the next steps in Ghana’s internal security service recruitment process.
Several candidates assumed that successfully passing the medical screening marked the end of the exercise.
However, the officer, known online as ekow_kakra on TikTok, clarified that an additional phase follows the medical assessment, which plays a crucial role in the selection process.

According to him, this stage is designed to conduct social and background investigations on applicants, ensuring that candidates with criminal records or questionable conduct are identified before recruitment.
“You will go for vetting before training school. This is where the authorities will visit your neighbourhood to investigate your conduct,” he explained.
The process also involves reviewing official records to confirm whether applicants have any criminal history. References provided by candidates are contacted to provide further insights about their character.
This phase, he emphasised, is critical to maintaining the integrity and credibility of the security services, ensuring that only suitable candidates are admitted to serve the nation.
