Influential Kumawood actor, Yaw Dabo has lamented on the unprecedented price hikes from market women in an attempt for them to exploit the ongoing crisis.

He stated his grief on how the market women are undoing the good work of the government just because they have an unfair advantage due to the increase in demand and the shortage of supply.

According to the actor, government has been doing an outstanding job by ensuring that subsidies are provided for people in the country by absorbing water and a fraction of the electricity bills yet he could not understand why citizens would want to take unfair advantage of others in these trying times when they are all supposed to come together to fight the spread of the deadly virus.

“Share this video until it gets to the President and all other stakeholders in our country. Something needs to be done about these issues with all urgency because we cannot continue like this. President has given us free water and also subsidized our light for us but there’s one thing which we need to make the government take note of and that’s the price for foodstuff in this country.

“The market women have increased their prices to the highest levels and that has made life unbearable because we cannot buy food. Mr. President please you need to do something about it for us,” 

The movie star begged the president and other stakeholders to intervene with regards to prices of products on the market or else that will rather kill people before covid-19 strikes. He is worried about the fact that some women who sell food, vegetables and other foodstuff have decided to cash in on the plight of Ghanaians to make unimaginable profits.

Dabo who said the amount he used in shopping has skyrocketed revealing that now even cassava which used to be five cedis is currently being sold for twenty cedis, while three fingers of plantain is being sold for fifteen cedis.
