The Management of the National Service Scheme (NSS) has, on the advice of Minister of Education,withdrawn the appointment of persons who were employed at the secretariat towards the end of the erstwhile National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) government in December 2016.
A statement from the National Service Scheme signed by newly appointed Executive Director, Ussif Mustapha, said the decision has been informed by a thorough consideration of violations of due process prior to the recruitment.
According to the statement, the Public Services Commission (PSC) had earlier warned the former Ag. Executive Directive, Michael Kpessah-Whyte to halt the recruitment process but he [Kpessah-Whyte] ignored it.
The Scheme further urged persons who have been affected by the development, to look forward to another opportunity when it conducts a proper staff recruitment.
205 persons have been affected by this decision.

WITHDRAWAL OF RECENT STAFF RECRUITMENT FOR THE NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME
The management of the National Service Scheme (NSS), has on the advice of the Minister of Education, withdrawn the National Service staff recruitment which was done in December 2016 with immediate effect.
This decision is informed by a thorough consideration of violations of due process prior to recruitment.
These included petitions to the Public Services Commission (PSC) against the recruitment process upon which the PSC in a letter dated 16th November, 2016, advised the former Ag. Executive Director to halt the recruitment process until the matter was properly resolved. This was however ignored and the appointment letters were issued to some persons on 15th December, 2016.
Management therefore wishes to advise persons affected by this decision to look forward to a new opportunity to have the staff recruitment properly carried out.
SIGND.
Ussif Mustapha
Ag. Executive Director

Good work done. I hear that there are also some illegal employees at other government institutions like the a Ghana Investment Promotion Centre so their new boss should ensure he fires them all. Else we the young elephants will vote the NPP out come next 4 years.
Ghana must begin to get serious with governance and if this move mark the beginning of serious governance then so be it... Any of the persons who were recruited know it was not proper!
