Is fugu not a traditional wear, why dedicate a separate day to wear it? Mind you people, we fought about it online to prevent disrespect from a certain useless country, that's all, don't come and give it any special treatment and impose it on anyone. It has now been marketed, thanks to that useless country. We'll wear it as and when some of us see fit. Declaration my foot, nonsense!

Lunacy. Ghanaians have the right to wear whatever traditional clothing they choose to wear any day of the week, and they do not need the government to issue meaningless cultural declarations.

Is it a policy or what? NDC must stop these diversionary tactics and concentrate on more important issues that affect Ghanaians. Cocoa farmers are not being paid, our roads are in bad shape, galamsey is destroying our environment, transportation costs are through the roof. Wearing fugu on Wednesdays do not put food on the table.

This Tourism Minister is not serious. She could as well declare Ghana a communist country and force everyone to wear the Fugu uniform. Very idiotic indeed!!!

I hate that fugu bcos of the way some of the users treat it especially my northern co-tenant, he's worn it for about 2yrs without washing making it an environmental hazard each time he passes. Is a fact that most wearers don't wash it though it harbours a lot of sweat in this our hot weather.
