We do not deny the gender factor but doing anything in Ghana is twice as difficult, compared to some parts of the world. Some of our people will deliberately drag their feet when it comes helping another person, especially if they don't stand to benefit directly. Don't give up.

Don't give up. You are too strong. Keep focused. Remember the good you are doing for Ghana's economy. You are employing people not taking into consideration the value chain. Congratulations. Encourage yourself. Remember David when he was attacked.

I don’t think it’s about you being a woman. Doing business generally in Ghana is very difficult

@Opresii said:

You're an inspiration to alot of Ghanaian women, you've come too far to give up now. Keep going and conquering my Boss Lady

From @nana_wol:

Your ability to start alone makes you a very strong person. Giving up sometimes feels like that is the only option which cause others not to even start up anything at all. You are an epitome of a strong woman.
