I completely understand his frustration, businesses are taking advantage of the situation to deliberately increase prices. Prices on petroleum products have been increasing year on year but some prices remained stable during those periods.

Birthday celebrated for pothole

In another hilarious but sad report reflecting the woes Ghanaians are facing, a deep hole on a road at Cantonments in Accra, near the Lands Commission, was left unattended for months.

The pothole that appeared intentionally cut out impedes movement on the stretch that is busy but the authorities who also use the road have not taken any steps to fill it up.

Citi TV's BreakfastDaily team decided to visit the spot to celebrate the pothole and cut a cake at the exact location to mark the hole's 'birthday'.
