From @tonginn:

She’s speaking nonsense don’t mind her , she’s lying ! which 15 cedis ??? Or which 30 cedis meat ??? Is it pork ??? Meat one pound is almost 40 cedis now. Then the animal might have died before it was sold as meat to you !

World Bank: Ghana Ranks 1st With Highest Food Inflation Of 122% In Africa

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Ghana was ranked number one by the World Bank as the country with the highest food prices in Africa.

The World Bank, in its October 2022 Africa Pulse report, disclosed that Ghana is the 1st on the list of countries in sub-Saharan Africa with the highest food inflation.

The Food Price Index reported in sub-Saharan Africa said Ghana’s sharp prices are mainly due to the Russian-Ukrainian war, which has led to steep increments in food in several countries.
