This isn’t really going to be a pleasant experience for Ghana AT ALL
There are two parts to look at during a period like this. The impact on government and also businesses/consumers (Ghanaians)
[A THREAD]
Entry level salary 1,500ghc.
It will take you 10 years of saving everything you earn to be able to buy an accident car. Accident car oooo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seee Ghana is a shitty country!
"The average female OnlyFans makes $433 a week while the average male OnlyFans makes $31 a week.
When are we going to address this sickening pay gap inequality?"
Lowkey I dey miss my Max international friends, esp those who said they were going to become millionaires in a year and I am missing an opportunity of a lifetime. Nbe
Naaa Goil this wasn’t the expectation. Oil is down to 82$. Cedi is at 7 cedis, literally that was August’s rate. How can you just reduce it from 15.5 to just 13.4???

I draft business plans, work on proposals, create good strategies for business. Anything business solution, I am your guy. RT for my clients might probably not see it if you ignore.
When I started my journey to be a BDO. This was the first client I worked for. Watching how the business plan I developed for him become a reality, I’m super proud of him and my little contribution to support him is first 5 plates on me tomorrow as he finally opens
If you are a registered small business in Ghana and looking at getting a 5 year Tax break for your business. You can apply for that with NEIP. If you need any aide or even a connect, I can help with that. You can send me a dm. RT to help a small business save 1000s in taxes.
People are being ripped off, taking peanuts salaries, bullied to even use their salaries for work stuff but you will be told that "appreciate small beginnings". We are all enablers of crony capitalism.
Sheldon I really want to ask an honest question. This is seriously out of curiosity. What is the best approach in criticizing your content creation? A really honest question.
Debt to GDP almost at 80%
We lose 3bn$ to corruption each year
That’s about 25% of government expenditure
We borrow more than that to finance expenditure each year.
Do whatever you want to do with this information
- 10% of graduates get into jobs.
- minimum wage 0.9$ per day
- 53% inflation in 2023
- almost 40% cost of capital
- median household income 300$
- mortgage rate is around 35%
- 120% of income goes to food
The next time I see any post about “lazy youth”, I might lose it
The NPP has wiped out over 3 decades of economic gains. Lower confidence, 1983 kinda inflationary environment, with GRR approaching 40%, individuals losing their savings and you come to tell us that, you weren’t reckless in borrowing? Spent 3bn usd of Eurobond cash on Covid
My sincere advice is, go on eventbrite, check on IG, LinkedIn and just shadda and go for events, be it investor/US/Ghana chamber of hwan hwan, talk about your skill with people, offer free services with any skill you have, even if it is cooking.
Had a conversation with my bro yesterday and we spoke about how even if you’re unemployed/nothing is going on for you right now, try to mingle from time to time with people. All the info on opportunities dey streets, if you always dey house you no go hear anything.
Join me on the 21st & 22nd of July as we discuss the various infrastructure, value chain support and funding opportunities across Africa for Agric focused businesses.
The truth is, a lot of people here earn between 1000ghc to 2500. If you take 90% of workers here. That's their range.
Another thing is that, most people on here are students. Especially those who engage on lots of topics.
We’ve been able to communicate with everyone and come to an agreement.
We’ve also made a back up of the list of our Val’s day customers for this years and we are offering them a discount on next year’s packages. This was a learning experience and we’d like to say THANK YOU ❤️
The video of DJ Khaled and the lady shows how consent seems to be a one way agenda. Lol we don't see our usual yaa asantewaas shouting consent and sexual harassment all over the tl.
This is my little advice for any business owner out there that protested yesterday (online or on grounds). If you have any statutory or compliance gaps in your small business, send me a Dm and let me guide because they would have eyes on you.

Let me help out with this. Now Printing money will sink the worth of the currency because scarcity determines worth. (Basic Econs) it's actually a possible monetary policy and also a preached one(called Modern monetary policy). The only issue when we choose this path is

The less human contact there is, the less likely there would be corruption. The more reason why digitization is the best strategy to crack down on corruption.
When it comes to pricing in Ghana, I find the most absurd support for business owners here. We all know that Ghanaian businesses behave horribly and selfishly when it comes to pricing in Ghana. Duties were reduced by half but were never reflected in prices.
Twitter dierr when you agree with them, the say you are now thinking. If you don’t, then they tell you that Politics has overshadowed your ability to reason. Yebl33 oo.
There’s been several calls by some people on Twitter for dictatorship as leadership for African countries as a way to see the development we desperately need. I hope those folks are seeing what is happening
We need about 400million$ monthly to import fuel to Ghana. We export over 14bn$ worth of crude oil yearly. It is just mathematically sound that refinery is a mus..…. You dierr is okay. I am not a energy expert.
One industry I am excited about esp in Ghana and Africa at large is Electric Mobility. In Ghana, three electric mobility companies are poised to launch over 3000+ electric bikes into the courier service space in Ghana this year. We expect prices for mobility to drop
Ghanaian journalists so poised on comparing Ghana to Rwanda but we know for a fact that they wouldn't even have a job if they were there. Go and hold Kagame accountable and see.
People will struggle but for them to help you, they will rather choose to pull their phones, record you and disgrace on the internet.
The very character of mankind
@ameyaw112
It is their rant that made people react to it. Self claiming "big brands" and "superstars" just because the meeting was moved to 8? Nerrh bro. This isn't loose talk, some "self proclaimed celebrities" ain't it at all
@RobertBoatengD1
and I have been working on this vertical farm project to help families, farmers and restaurants to grow tomatoes and other vegetables at home with a pretty simple method. Literally down to watering 1/6
We barely have managed to increase our minimum wage in the last 20 years but it’s unemployment benefit we can afford to implement? When 88% of jobs are in the informal sector
Lol Twitter is never about facts and figures. It's about support your own regardless of the facts and I see it all the time. You can never call one of your own out because it's one of your own. Don't preach about objectivity when you see political tweets. You ain't different.
I feel so bad for younger folks (including me). We are just at a crossroad. Not many individuals are able to get the opportunity to access remote work. People are barely earning enough to get by. 10% of graduates get into jobs after completion. Barely earning 200$.
So telecos in Ghana dey try tell we say, they have no idea about the Communication tax reduction? There was a quick increment when the tax came into force but are reluctant to rollback after a tax reduction? Ahnn buei
Please those that would want to drag GMET on the usual. They issued a weather warning this morning at 6am. Maybe pay a little more attention before dragging them.
People rant about injustice in Ghana but when police pull them over, they start phoning their police friends in high places. Lol we are all in the mess together. Connection be the justice for this Ghana..
I've never been afraid this much until I realized how some fight, sentimental speech and consistent rhetoric on social media has actually changed my approach to lots of things. I was talking to a friend yesterday, who louded about the fact that she wants to gain weight... 1/
I know y’all got y’all Arkansas jokes but for $850,000. You just can’t beat this.🔥🔥
4,347 SF (doesn't included heated/cooled 3 car garage)

But I still don't get it. Abeiku expect Nana Aba to talk about a story that even those artistes haven't said a word about. Shatta Wale of all people kept mute about this and he still expect Nana Aba to just drag the issue here. Eii and people still feel he has a point.
Because of Celebrities Menzgold had their way. I mean who wouldn't trust a financial institution that had the faces of almost all Presenters and Musician on their billboards.
DID U KNOW THAT AS A GHANAIAN ARTIST OR CREATIVE U CANT ENDORSE AN ALCOHOLIC BRAND OF ANY SORT ? AND NOW NO BETTING BRANDS EITHER ..??? HOW DO WE FIX THIS ? WE ARE LOOSING BIG BAGS !!!
Don't be Fooled, Ghana is not doing so well as you have been made to believe.
Whenever there is pure economic growth in a country. There is an expectation of the citizens of the country to do well also. We should see families being able to afford basic needs. 1/1

Between January and July, oil prices have moved from 20$ a barrel to 70$ and on a clear path to 100$ by the end of the year. Clearly price adjustment has been seen in the direct to consumer products (LPGs, fuel et Al). This has also improved Government’s royalties entitlements.
Hmmm nothing scares me more than a Pastor with a surface knowledge in a topic making wrong claims with wrong facts and preaching in that light. It really scares me..
I think it is important that our media houses move from inviting politicians to make comments on COVID19 and focus on inviting experts to give expert opinions on this matter. We continue to admonish that, we should move from politicizing this and that is exactly what happens..
I have a feeling that the lockdown would be relaxed but government agencies would have to restructure itself for this relaxation. They should allow those who can work from home to do that. Allowing just essential workers that need to be at the office to be allowed there.
Foreigners: I love Ghana
Locals: “we are murderers, there is nothing to love about ghana, we live in poverty”
Lol, Ghana’s systematic culture is what destroys our ability to look at gains and multiply. We only see the “dark side” and amplify it always.
Don't forget Former CEO of UT Bank had a "group of companies". UT securities, UT properties and MILIFE insurance. So before you assume that he is broke, only one of his companies collapsed.
One of the things I believe has caused this level of economic pain is pride. The pride on never going back on your word knowing pretty well that’s all the option you have. You chose a knee jerk approach to tax “capital” through E-Levy. Now here we are, back to square IMF.
About two years ago, Rwanda banned the importation of second hand clothing from the US and they were kicked out of US's Africa growth and opportunity Act. This shows how western economies are willing to push African countries to succumb to their trade deals.
This is completely dishonest, Addo has disappointed us and completely the bar was Mahama, do you have any idea how bad Mahama was? Like have you looked at the numbers? He was setting records here and there, Lowest growth in 4 decades? Negative sector growth (how can Agric
