Ghana’s Controller and Accountant-General, Kwesi Agyei, has revealed that around 4,000 government employees are currently in arrears on student loans. These outstanding debts are owed to the Student Loan Trust Fund (SLTF). The disclosure highlights a potential financial issue within the public sector regarding loan repayment obligations. The number represents a portion of the total workforce receiving salaries from the government. Details regarding the amount of outstanding debt or plans for recovery were not immediately available. This situation raises questions about financial responsibility and the management of public funds connected to educational loans. Further investigation may be needed to understand the reasons behind these defaults and their impact on the SLTF.
