The National Service Scheme (NSS) has announced that it will shut down its registration system on Friday, December 5, 2025, as only 50% of deployed personnel have completed registration. Deputy Director-General of Operations, Fuseini Donkor, expressed frustration over the low turnout, citing repeated reminders and warnings.
Donkor stated that the system, capable of handling millions of registrations, remains underutilized due to personnel delays. He criticized attempts to bypass official procedures, with some individuals expecting to influence postings through unofficial means. Regional offices are reportedly idle, awaiting personnel who fail to report.
The NSS has urged remaining personnel to register promptly, emphasizing that no extensions will be granted. Those who fail to comply risk being left out entirely. The scheme will issue further updates as the deadline approaches.
He warned that the system will not remain open beyond the deadline.
“By Friday, we are closing the system,” he said.
“Today is Wednesday, and 50% of them have not reported. Our system can take even a million, but they must report and register.”
Fuseini Donkor criticised what he described as deliberate delays and attempts by some personnel to bypass the official process.
He noted that regional offices have been left idle because many deployed personnel are refusing to report, believing they can later return with money to change their postings.
“The frustration they are giving to the system is becoming too much,” he lamented. “Most of the regional offices are just sitting there doing nothing because somebody thinks, ‘I will bring money, I will change it for you.’ Please, by Friday, we are locking the system.”
The Service is expected to issue further updates as the deadline approaches.
