University of Ghana students are frustrated with the poor condition of their hostels, despite a reported $16 million renovation by the Sports Ministry ahead of the 2023 Africa Games.
Videos show leaking roofs, flooding, and poor kitchen and study room conditions in several halls. Students question the renovation's effectiveness, noting no significant improvements.
The university cites structural issues causing flooding during heavy rains and states that the government oversaw the renovations.
The Sports Ministry and UG Enterprise Limited clarified that their contract did not cover ceiling repairs. The university is working to address the structural and drainage issues.
