"Herh Ghana! Nov and Dec allowances paid in February."
@Inusah Mustapha Sugru also said:
"NSS please you have paid only one month allowance for some people because many of the service personnel don't have November evaluation form simple because they were posted late imagine posting a person on 20th November how would the person got verified and be paid ahh our mother Ghana national service personnel too you can't pay them."
@Nana Adu commented:
"Ghana National Service Authority, I would like to understand what happened to the November allowance for those who could not start in November due to late posting. You did not post me on time. The postings were done in batches and as a result,my posting came in December which is when I officially started my service. I was paid only for December and excluded from November even though the delay in my posting was not caused by me but entirely administrative. Is this fair?"
