Ghana's military shot down rumors about UN peacekeeping pay after social media went wild, claiming soldiers get $300 daily. Captain Veronica Adzo Arhin from the Armed Forces told reporters the real number is $46 per day per soldier, and the government hands $35 straight to troops while keeping $11 for training, internet access, and morale stuff at deployment sites.

The military says that the extra chunk covers pre-deployment training at Bundase, holiday celebrations for battalions abroad, and visits from Ghana to check on personnel. Arhin called out whoever started the $300 rumor for trying to turn soldiers against their commanders, and she warned journalists that spreading this garbage hurts national security.

She also admitted housing is rough right now because service got extended by five years, and recruitment jumped due to regional instability. The defense chief ordered 700 new accommodation blocks for next year, but Arhin said the problem won't vanish completely.
