Premier Towers, located in Accra's Ministries enclave, is a prominent commercial property funded by the SSNIT pension system. However, despite its prime location and pension funding, the building has been struggling to generate dependable rental income. SSNIT's reported occupancy rate is alarmingly low, at only 22.45% in 2024 and 2025, and declining to 15.94% in 2026.
