“My parents are actually not aware of this but I invested my school fees in a business. I did not think this directive by the school will come so soon.
I wanted to make some returns before paying the money. I blame myself,” he said.
Below were some comments Ghanaians shared under the video.
Olyvia Dayana III said: This isn’t funny, in the end, you are affirming the university’s claim and it’s poor students who genuinely don’t have much to pay on time, who’ll suffer.
Caleb Calvin Akwetey-Addo indicated: The reasons why these 6000 students couldn’t pay their fees never make sense to me. Even if some will do that they can’t be more than 20%. These are just strategies to not let people blame the inability for the students to pay their fees to the current hardship in the country.
Hanniel Mensah mentioned: How he said the profit made me laugh, This guy was surely confidential in that business he claims he entered
