A Ghanaian student studying at the University of Northampton, England, under government scholarship has lamented the severe financial distress due to delayed tuition and stipend payments from sponsors.
The affected student, Ernestina Kyeremaa has called on the government to urgently intervene before their education and well-being are further jeopardised.
Speaking on JoyNews' The Law on Sunday, Madam Kyeremaa, one of the affected students, revealed that the scholarship students are suffering with some of their predecessors who completed their studies last year and have had their certificates withheld due to unpaid school fees.
The situation, she says has worsened for current students, as the university has issued a deadline of April 14, warning that if their fees are not settled, they will be evicted and reported to the UK Home Office.
