Security analyst Adib Saani has voiced strong criticism against the Ghana Police Service’s decision to charge nearly GH¢1,000 (about $60) for mandatory medical examinations for prospective recruits. Saani argues that this high fee places an undue financial burden on applicants, limiting access for many who wish to serve the state.

Highlighting concerns around fairness and inclusivity, Saani calls for an end to what he views as an exploitative practice, advocating instead for a more accessible recruitment process. The issue has sparked a broader debate about recruitment costs and accessibility within Ghana’s public service sectors.
