There is growing anticipation across the country as thousands of graduates eagerly await the official opening of the 2026 Ghana Education Service (GES) recruitment portal. After hours of refreshing pages and monitoring updates, a fresh and important announcement has finally been made.
GES Confirms Official Channels for Portal Release
The Public Relations Officer of the Ghana Education Service, Daniel Fenyi, has confirmed that the recruitment portal will indeed be opened today, April 10, 2026, as earlier promised by the Minister of Education.
However, he issued a strong caution to applicants—the recruitment link will only be shared through three official platforms:
- Official GES Facebook Page
- Official GES WhatsApp Channel
- Daniel Fenyi’s Official Page
According to him:
“The portal will be open today, 10th, as our Minister promised. It’ll be published on the official GES Facebook page, the official GES WhatsApp channel and Daniel Fenyi page. These 3 pages must be your ONLY source of information.”
This directive is crucial, especially at a time when fake links and misinformation are likely to circulate.
