The National Service Authority (NSA) is moving forward with its plan to implement mandatory one-month military training for all National Service personnel.
This was reiterated by Fuseini Donkor, the Deputy Director-General in charge of Operations at the NSA, during an interview with Okay FM on June 16, 2025.
Donkor emphasised that this initiative aims to instill essential values in the nation's youth. "This initiative is necessary for our youth to build the sense of patriotism, discipline, and mental fortitude," he stated.
The proposed military training, officially known as the National Service Emergency Response Readiness Programme (NSERRP), was first announced after a meeting between NSA leadership and the Military High Command on April 23, 2025, at the Ministry of Defence in Accra.
