it all started few years ago when i received a facebook message that a travel agency in Nigeria was recruiting Ghanaians and Nigerians for jobs in Canada, i sold everything i had and borrowed money from a lot of people and kept sending them money for the travel to Canada, when i ran out of money to send to them, they invited me to Nigeria that my visa is ready, when i got to Nigeria they took the remaining money i had on me and seized my phone and refused to give me my passport that i posted to them earlier from Ghana, i was left stranded and resorted to sleeping under a bridge with some homeless people and was begging people during the day for help to go back to Ghana, police raided the place i was squatting after some days and arrested everybody there, they took us to court because hard drugs were found on some prostitutes and thugs squatting there, i was sentenced to 2 years in prison because i had no lawyer to defend me, i will finish serving my sentence in 3 months time and sent back to Ghana, my fellow Ghanaians please i need help of any amount of money so i can eat and treat myself, i have been sick and i have not eaten good food for sometime now, i don't want to die now my freedom date is near, no amount of money is too small to help me with, i will appreciate any amount of money sent to me and God will bless and reward the sender abundantly, i can work for the sender when i return to Ghana in 3 months time to pay back, we manage to use smuggled phones here to beg people through facebook and other social media platforms, this is how most prisoners here survive because we are very desperate, the situation here is so terrible, horrible and pathetic, infact we are in hellfire here, people die everyday here from starvation and minor illnesses like malaria and ulcer, please i need help urgently, i need to eat good food and buy malaria drugs to treat myself, the food they give us here is small portions of watery beans and jollof rice that can't satisfy a child, when an inmate is sick here and doesn't have money to buy medication, the prison warders will ignore you until you die or recover without taken medication, they may only give you paracetamol and antibiotics if you cry too much, but if you have money, the prison warders can buy for you good food and medicines from outside, i can be reached on WhatsApp via +2348140725576, this is my cellmate's number, some warders smuggle in phone for people here if you bribe them, i don't have a phone, when you chat, tell her you want to chat with Sandra so she can give the phone to me, please help make my story go viral so i can get help by posting my story and my cellmate's WhatsApp number: +2348140725576 on facebook and WhatsApp groups, please i need help, i'm suffering a lot here.

Yes they have to take action immediately because the government is not protecting the students. The hostel fee is outrageous and we need someone responsible to intervene. The thief r work trying to rob the students.

Economics students should do Cost Benefit Analysis of running hostels 16 hours ago

and use their results as a guide to both hostel owners and prospective student occupants in fixing the fees. A range of min and max rents for different categories of hostels, homestells, etc. will do.

Instead of the useless 24 hour markets when constituents have more than enough of them, Government should build 24-hour hostels on university campuses. By the way, how much do the various SRCs charge for their hostels built with their own students money? Let a businessman who goes to be bank for a 10M loan to build a 50-room hostel. What’s the interest rate? Even at 25%, the interest alone is 2.5M without the principal of 10M not touched. If it is a 2-in-1 room and a student pays 8000 cedis per year, the room yields 16,000 cedis per year. Multiply 16,000 x 50 rooms and the gross revenue is 800,000 cedis. This is not net income oo but gross without maintenance costs and salaries and GRA taxes and EPA, assembly business permits and property tax plus Ghana Tourism Authority registration etc. How can the 800K offset the bank interest of 2.5M cedis? If you are not in the industry, you will end up talking rubbish without proper analysis.

Kwaku,this is insightful analysis,tax rebates and bank concessionary interest rates can help the hostel developers but like most development issues it is free for all.
