THE MINISTER for the Interior, Hon. Muntaka Mohammed Mubarak has announced that the online application portal for recruitment into the Police, Prisons, Fire, and Immigration Services will officially open on Monday, November 17, 2025.
The move comes with strict new measures aimed at preventing overcrowding and ensuring a smooth and safe selection process across the country.
The Minister said the government has taken key lessons from the recent tragedy at the El-Wak Sports Stadium and is determined to avoid a repeat. To achieve this, multiple screening centres will be set up in every region. Accra alone will have between 10 and 15 centres to accommodate the large number of applicants.
Each centre will host no more than 1,000 applicants a day—500 in the morning and another 500 in the afternoon. Applicants have been warned to strictly follow their scheduled time, as anyone who arrives in the morning when scheduled for the afternoon session will be instantly disqualified.
To further reduce congestion, the screening will be done in phases. The Police Service will conduct its screening first. Only after it is completed will another security agency begin its own exercise. Additionally, no two agencies will conduct screenings at the same location at the same time.
The Minister assured the public that these measures are designed to protect lives, maintain order, and ensure fairness throughout the recruitment process.
