The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has announced the temporary closure of all recruitment centres in Accra except the El-Wak Sports Stadium effective Monday, November 24, 2025.
This follows earlier measures taken to ease congestion after the stampede at the El-Wak Sports Stadium on Wednesday, November 12, 2025. In response to that incident, GAF had opened additional screening centres, including two at Nicholson Park in Burma Camp, one at the Air Force Base in Burma Camp, two centres at the Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) in Teshie, and another at the Eastern Naval Command in Tema.
However, in an update posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, November 23, GAF announced that all Accra recruitment centres aside from El-Wak would now be closed.
The notice read: “GAF Recruitment Update: All recruitment centres in Accra for the 2025/2026 exercise, except El-Wak Sports Stadium, will be closed on Monday, 24 November 2025. All potential recruits yet to be screened should report to El-Wak Sports Stadium for the continuation of documentation and body selection.”
The latest directive seeks to streamline the remaining stages of the recruitment process while improving crowd management and enhancing safety following the earlier incident.
