Therefore, she asked the incoming administration to ensure the drastic reduction of prices of goods, services and food including kenkey. She also wants the incoming administration to improve people's lives.

Kenkey, made from fermented maize dough, is a traditional meal many Ghanaians across the country enjoy.

However, the cost of ingredients and inflation have increased, making it less accessible to low-income families.

The woman's only request from the incoming President is to ensure that he makes kenkey affordable.

The supporter demanded that John Mahama reduce the price of kenkey to GH¢1 when he takes office.
