In an interview with YEN.com.gh, Betty Mensah, a professional marriage counsellor based in Takoradi, shared more about the need for couples to avoid having joint bank accounts;

"As long as we are human beings, we are bound to change, and that change takes place even in marriage. Having only one account where both husband and wife contribute their savings to is completely wrong.
Anything can happen, and that can be very detrimental. It is safe to have individual accounts and establish the percentages each person needs to contribute for expenses and bring money together in that regard", she said.
