The Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC) has moved to quash a damaging report circulating widely on social media platforms, particularly Facebook.
The agency, which manages crucial revolving loan funds for thousands of entrepreneurs and small-scale traders, has categorically dismissed claims alleging it has failed to pay its workforce for an extended period.
The viral social media post, which gained traction late this week, specifically alleged that MASLOC’s dedicated staff members—including those in the field, loan officers, and central administrative personnel—were owed up to six months’ worth of salaries.
Such a lapse, if true, would severely cripple the operational capacity of an organisation vital to the government’s social intervention and economic empowerment agenda, which often involves disbursing millions of Ghana Cedis in critical short-term financing.
In a public statement released on Friday, November 21, 2025, MASLOC’s management launched a formal defense of its financial standing and commitment to its employees.
The official communication described the social media allegation as “inaccurate and misleading”.
Management insisted that the narrative currently being circulated online does “not reflect the reality on the ground” within the organization.
The statement stressed that all necessary financial obligations to staff are being met, maintaining the professional integrity required to manage public funds.
To further allay fears among stakeholders and its own team, MASLOC affirmed that it “maintains regular engagement with its staff on all operational matters”.
This ensures a continuous communication channel regarding payroll, benefits, and operational strategy, undermining the premise of a hidden, protracted payment crisis.
The centre unequivocally stated that there is “no basis for the claims being made.”
The organisation’s continued smooth operation is critical; MASLOC has, in recent years, been tasked with disbursing substantial funds, with reports showing millions of Ghana Cedis reaching women’s groups and youth enterprises across all 16 regions.
Disruptions caused by poor staff morale or public financial uncertainty could directly impede these vital economic lifelines.
Management therefore strongly urged the general public, loan beneficiaries, and media practitioners to “disregard the publication” and treat the information contained in the viral post as deliberate misinformation.
MASLOC encourages any concerned stakeholders to refer only to its official communication channels for verified updates on its financial and operational status.
