According to Joselyn Dumas, the friend came from abroad to spend some time in Ghana and also experience the culture and the life in the country but got disappointed especially when her friends realized how expensive it is to live in Ghana.
In a tweet, Joselyn further stated that the friend complained about the high cost of living in Ghana and how distressing it will be for local businesses to thrive in a country like this and how foreign ventures would operate in a country like Ghana.
Feeling ashamed and disturbed about the whole situation, Joselyn Dumas intimated that she could not say anything about her friend’s sentiments.
She wrote; A friend of mine came to Ghana for a few weeks and later called me saying… Joo why is the living here soo expensive, for a developing country ? wow. How can local businesses thrive ? & how can foreign businesses come in and operate successfully? I was just quiet…
Ghana has become one of the few African countries most foreign businesses love to operate in and expand their ventures, but unfortunately, the high cost of living has chased a lot of ventures out of the country.
This has probably also contributed to the lack of employment among the youth and also raised the level of poverty in the country. Well, it’s no surprising Ghana’s economy continues to be slammed down as compared to other countries.
