The National Service Authority (NSA) has officially opened registration for defaulters and private candidates for the 2025/2026 service year.
This exercise is specifically open to Ghanaian citizens who, after completing tertiary education, were unable to enroll in the national service program in previous years.
In a statement signed by Mr. Felix Gyamfi, the Director-General, the NSA emphasized the importance of the initiative: “This registration period is a crucial opportunity for those who missed the chance to serve their nation. We urge all eligible candidates to take advantage of this window.”
Eligible applicants include private candidates with credentials certified by accredited tertiary institutions and Ghanaian nationals who have studied abroad.
