  What is the government also doing to expand the existing halls of residence. Fortunately, the founding fathers acquired large track of lands!!
  Consider Tek for instance.
  If the government is able to put up more halls of residence the private developers will not continue to have their field day!!

  What are they doing about the high cost of lands and building materials? On what basis are they going to charge those hostel owners. What happened when the minister of State wanted DSTV in Ghana to charge same prices as their Nigerian counterparts.
  Did the government compare the cost of operating in Ghana vs that of Nigeria?
  These sound bites without the needed research by the rent control won’t go anywhere. If they want to address rent prices they should start with land prices and high costs of putting up structures in Ghana

  the rent commission members should give their homes to the student and build more affordable rental hostels for the students in the interim.

  Rubbish!! It is not the responsibility of the Rent Commission to provide accomodation but to enforce the law. Why don't you also built cheap hostels for students to rent?

  @Adamafio, must you exhibit your usual foolishness for people who already know you as a by product of a bush rape of your village drunk mother and a petty village armed robber? At least, think for once like a human being even though you are a byproduct of a bush rape. The last born of John Mahama is far sensible and better than you in every way. Mmoaaaa.

  Why this exorbitant ,how can you charge such an amount for student to pay. Some times we blame the government in the sense that, they need put regulatory measures where no hostels owner can't charge beyond but if sit idle and allow them to do what they want,how can sanity in price system. Some of the Lord I asked myself what do the money for and again do they have family somewhere who are facing rent problem.

  Mr Commissioner what about private residence(s) being used for hostel facilities. A lot around Ayeduase New Site and beyond. No security no steward, no cleaners etc. Some even have dogs within the premises which is dangerous and places the students lives at risk. Collection of refuse is a problem so they burn up the refuse in front of the house and sometimes inside the house just to hide it from neighbors.
  The fees charge are not different from the real/licensed hostels.
  They are all over the place and the affected students can lead the authorities to these diabolic landlords.

  When did this high hostel fees come to the notice of the commission ? Do you know the university staff association also are owners of these hostels, and are also charging the same exorbitant fees? I am surprised the commission failed to look at also the road situation at ayeduase hostels. It is like remotest part of South Sudan . They are waiting for a disaster to strike and all of a sudden the knust administration will wake up from their sleep. Students are being rip off with full support of knust administration . Tweaaa!!!!
