The Ghana Prison Service has denied allegation of ongoing secret recruitment of some 1,500 personnel into the service without recourse to the laid down recruitment process.

There were reports that the service is recruiting persons captured on a list from the Jubilee House.

Speaking to Starr News, the PRO of the Ghana Prisons Service, Courage Atsem said the current process is a continuation of the recruitment process advertised last year.

“The Ghana Prison Service as you may well know is a public institution so we do not do secret recruitment or enlistment. All our recruitment are public and advertized, this one was advertised last year and the procedure started last year. We’ve trained about three batches already, this is about the fourth batch we are working on. So it is not a secret exercise.”
