The dreams and aspirations of some students with special needs at the University of Ghana may hit a snag if the government fails to pay their tuition fees before Friday, November 8, 2024.This is a result of the Scholarship Secretariat's delay in releasing their funds for over a year now, leaving many to grapple with the hard reality of fending for themselves."My mom is the one who takes care of me and she borrows from people.
As I speak my mother owes a lot of people because of this school fees matter.
I cannot even sleep because anytime I try to sleep, I remember I owe the school and I have to register for my course before Friday, 8 November 2024.
My colleagues are attending lectures, but I cannot go because I have not registered." Richmond Yador, an affected visually impaired law student, lamented.Since childhood, Richmond and his colleagues have vowed not to beg for alms on the streets but rather climb the academic ladder.
