Only an ignorant and gullible African will join the British or American army and brag about it. Why will you fight and sacrifice your life to save that of the Aryan Caucasian rascal?

Joining the British ot American Armies is no more a personal achievement , so Ghanaians shd be careful. The way NATO is harassing Russia, and the latter cunningly monitoring them if war shd break out these Ghanaian soldiers will regret. I only pray they use wisdom in solving their problems.

The fact is that, under Akuffo Addo, recruitment to security services were done in secrecy. You only hear of their passing out ceremonies.

Pray today but be pragmatic: If income stops suddenly, what practical skill do most people actually have? One thing that keeps paying daily — even in hard times — is smartphone repair & accessories. Phones break every day. People fix them immediately. Cash changes hands fast. This isn’t motivation talk ***

It’s a practical skill many unemployed and working people are quietly learning now — especially to support siblings, relatives, or community youth. A simple guide by Chukky Oparandu that breaks it down clearly: how beginners start, how repairs + flashing + accessories work, and how it can even lead into IT careers.***

No big capital needed. Some people are buying copies just to empower others this season instead of giving gifts that finish ***

If you’re planning ahead for 2026, it’s worth a look. You can search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or check selar.co/m/chukky (there’s even a French edition). Just sharing what many are quietly using to prepare ***

Yes, sir, spot on. People badly need the military, police etc for job opportunities. What happened recently at El-Wak is a clear example. Too many people chasing few spots, so the military set very high demands for entry.

Bravo Ghanaweb! He is a rastafarian but got recruited into the British army, Ghanaian young men be in dreads! Spend all your time doing dreads. It's not part of our cultural and moral values but it is accepted in British army so do it!
Ver soon Ghanaweb will describe how a Ghanaian armed robber, a lesbian, a gay, etc got recruited into the British army just to promote and encourage the youth to do them.
What do you the media gain when you do things or promote what is alien to us and our culture. The youth blindly follow and eventually get destroyed. How many rastafarians as against non-rastafarians get recruited into the British army? Why is that not reported?
Ghanaweb must change to remain relevant!

Anyone criticizing what the young man said is a big Fool. Our military men here cannot stand ordinary galamseyers. Yet so so high standards. This guy is being paid and every job has got hazards. The soldiers in Bawku how much is their salary, the likelihood of being shot and killed by some hoodlum is very high and what do they get. It’s better you get shot by a Russian and have your family taken care of than die in this stinking hole and then your wife will have to sleep with every dick to help raise your kids.
