Applicants of the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) e-recruitment deserve further extensions to the deadline for the sale of vouchers, and to this, GIS and Ghana Commercial Banks must comply.
When I wrote the article that the Ghana Police Service and the Ghana Immigration Service e-Recruitment portal were a mere ploy to "confufrustrate" Ghanaians, nobody really thought my forecast deserved any reverence, till today.
For the past 3 days, the Recruitment Portal: Ghana Immigration Service has faced serious server downtime and website migration challenges which traumatised the already confufrustrated potential applicants, who queued to purchase a sim
ple voucher and had to run helter-skelter for other documents for information required in filling the online application forms. Sadly, the deadline for the sale of voucher forms was supposed to be today the 8th. This caused mass trauma, as most applicants were sure everything ends today Friday for them, and buying a form you would not be able to at least use, and be disqualified, plays no pleasant a tune to jiggle to. To a total dismay, the date is moved forward from today Friday, the 8th of December to Monday the 11th 2017. Without a doubt, today being a weekend, the Ghana Commercial Bank, the principal bank of the Bank Of Ghana, which has the exclusive right for the sale of such forms, will most definitely not open tomorrow Saturday to sell these vouchers to those who have not gotten the chance to buy and register, due to the 3 day delay.
Firstly, the extension, from the 8th to the 11th, was to make up for the 3 days delay but it is not so, in practice, considering no Ghana Commercial Bank opens tomorrow to sell vouchers, even if they have to. The question here is, has the delayed number of days and the associated inconveniences created as a result of that incompetency, been indemnified to the Ghanaian applicants who bought the vouchers and couldn't get through to the servers of the GIS to submit their applications? The answer, of course, is a magnanimous NO. The implication is that the extension is actually "no extension" at all, as, it is not wrong to foresee that, some branches of the GCB could decide not to sell the vouchers come next week Monday for the fact that few branches, we know of, have just a single teller attending to the bank customers and potential e-recruitment applicants waiting in endless queues outside the bank premises, to purchase vouchers. What happens when some people are not able to get the 'equal chance' every Ghanaian deserves to try this recruitment stuffs? How long must we sit idle and watch some select individuals dictate how Ghanaians are frustrated on daily bases to the satisfaction of their selfish interests and gluttony?
This e-recruitment contract was awarded to a clueless TrybeNet Consult, who couldn't handle the website hosting and maintenance professionally expected of them, and now Ghanaians have to pay for this incompetence and all these culprits are going to just walk away free, with the "final month" sort of impregnated pockets of Ghana's money.
The best way to address this gross mismanagement is for GIS to extend the deadline further to next week Wednesday the 13th for the sale of forms and Friday 15th for final registration, which is what any one Ghanaian must call 'fair and just'.
Akpe.
