you are very funny, the same way some tenants are not correct... i gave out new built 3bedroom house, used coral paints. u deposited one month security with condition u return the house to original state b4 u move out. aftr moving out, painting alone cost about ghc 3800... before other items they broke... how much was the rent for me to spend that much to repair the place... dont blame landlords, some tenants are just not correct..

Ask bawumia. In 2016 before npp came to power, a chamber of hall self contained was 250 cedis. Before they left office in 2024 ,it was between 1200 1nd 2000 c3dis depending on the location. A single room today around Tesano is around 1500. Do you remember as the head of the emt, bawumia the grossly incompetent flimsy economist took 1 dollar per 4 cedia in 2016 to 1 pper 17 cedis in 2024. A bag of cement from 35 cedis to 110 cedis. He said he was economic messiah. We are siffering today becaise of akuffo addo ,bawumia and the criminal ken oforo atta. Let us ask ourselves, if bawumia had become the president in 2024. A dollar would have been 1 to 30 cedis. A bag of cement, 250 cedis. Mahama, what is wrong with you jane naana. That old lady who today looka like a 30 year old woman. Its the tax payer s money. People are suffering. They struggle to get vehicles to and from their workplaces. Trotro drivers overcharge them
What prevents you from buying hundreds of tata buses to help ease their pain. A tata bus can take about 70 passengers, some sitting and others standing. Mahama, is this hoq you repay the people. There is no hope for ghana. Mahama and bawumia. The value is the same. Clueless and visionless guys.

Things are getting tougher and tougher. Ghanaians are suffering, dumsor,floods, bad roads, rent, hight itility tarrifs, high cost of living
It can take about 4 hours trying to get transport to and from work.

They have to buy food, pay for transportation to work daily, and then pay rent with this little money ...

Ghanaian landlords don't care whether dollar is down or not. The cost of rent will always increase regardless.
