Price Hikes: Ghanaians Are Naturally Born Bad — Micky Charles
Mr Charles Kwadwo Ntim, known popularly as Micky Charles, has criticised some market women for allegedly taking advantage of consumers by setting arbitrary prices for foodstuffs, despite the availability of produce in the markets.
Speaking on Lawson FM, the outspoken communications team member of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) questioned why traders would charge high prices for basic food items when foodstuffs were reportedly abundant.
He accused some sellers of determining prices based on customers’ appearances rather than applying consistent pricing.
“Foodstuffs are in stock and abundant, but when these market women go for them, they determine their own prices. They look at your face to determine the price. Why are we doing this to ourselves? Are we all not Ghanaians?” he asked.
Charles also questioned the cost of locally prepared foods such as kenkey and banku, comparing their selling prices with the cost of maize in some rural communities.
“A bag of maize in our remote areas could cost as little as GH¢300 or even less, so why do they have to sell a ball of kenkey or banku at GH¢10?” he queried.
He further lamented what he described as a tendency among some Ghanaians to take advantage of others whenever the opportunity arises.
“People are always taking advantage of others, given the least opportunity,” he said.
