UK based Ghanaian, Kwame Case has revealed that he spent over 15,000 CedIs on his three-week visit to Ghana this year.
In an interview on Daily Hustle Worldwide, Kwame sympathized with Ghanaians who make GHs1500 monthly, and complained about the high cost of living in Ghana, presently.
According to Kwame, he bought a pack of rice for Ghs25 lin 2021, but he could not finish it. In 2022, Kwame Case said he bought the same pack for Ghs40, and he was not satisfied.
“I came to Ghana with a budget but I overspent. Fuel, water, everything is expensive. I don’t know whether it is air that they pump as fuel for us these days. I spent GHs400 on fuel almost everyday.
Ghana is expensive. I feel sorry for some people living in Ghana because some are doing well, but what about those making GHs1500 a month with a family of four. How will they survive,” Kwame quizzed.
Moreover, Kwame stated that he could never survive on a GHs15k salary in Ghana at this rate. He mentioned that Ghana has become a place for the rich.
“Ghana is a good place to live if you own a company. If you live on hand-to-mouth, then you better find a way out.”
“I can’t survive on GHs15,000 monthly in Ghana. Maybe it is because I don’t live there but I spend a lot whenever I visit Ghana,” he told DJ Nyaami.
