A Ghanaian man has passionately appealed to fellow men to increase housekeeping money, otherwise known as Chop money, for their wives.

"Simple message to all the husbands and boyfriends out there. You can't tell your wife you want to eat various meals [during the week] and not want to increase housekeeping money. Go to Agbogbloshie and see. I know you don't want to hear this, but you've got to hear it," he said.
