The Cost Of Public Toilet Fees, Urinal Fees & Price Of Sachet Water Is Killing Us - Market Women

-

 Some Ghanaian market women have been recorded on camera complaining bitterly about the increase in the price of public toilet fees, urinal fees, and the cost of sachet water. Speaking to a journalist of UTV, one of the market women said that formerly if you are going to defecate at the public toilet with used graphic paper, the price was 60 Ghana pesewas. However, the price has now been increased to GH¢1.00. People who prefer to use toilet rolls are charged GH¢1.50 anytime that visit public toilets.

If you want to urinate at the marketplace, you will be charged 50 Ghana pesewas before you will be allowed to urinate at a convenient place. The price of sachet water has also been increased to 40 Ghana pesewas per sachet. This is making their lives extremely difficult because people don't patronize their goods very well as they used to do some time ago. As a result of this, they get a little profit from the products they sell.

And the majority of their profits are now consumed by public toilet fees, urinal fees, and the price of sachet water. Some of the women said that they usually visit the public toilet now less than four times a day. They also visit the public urinal not less than three times a day and drink more than 6 sachets of water a day. This is making their lives difficult because the profit they made on their products is little.

As a result of this, some of them do not even get transportation to go to their homes after work. So they are pleading to the President of the Republic of Ghana, His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to do something about the increase in the price of goods and services to make their life a little bit more comfortable.

  In a candid interview with SeanCity TV, renowned Ghanaian actor and producer Michael Afrane shared his concerns about the financial future of young Ghanaians who align themselves with the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Afrane, a prominent figure in the Kumawood Film industry, issued a stern warning, asserting that following the NPP, especially under the current leadership, could lead to financial ruin. Afrane's critique stems from his belief that the NPP government, led by President Akufo-Addo, lacks substantial plans to support the youth. He highlighted that many young people are finding it increasingly difficult to secure financial stability, attributing this struggle to what he describes as the party's frugal and ineffective governance. According to Afrane, the government's track record is marred by numerous scandals and pervasive corruption, which he claims undermines the country's economic potential and disproportionately affects the younger generation.
