One of Kennedy Agyapong’s daughters, Amanda, complained about the high prices of goods in Ghana a few days after she arrived in the country from the United States of America.
Amanda Agyapong said she was strolling on the streets when she decided to buy the popular Ghanaian ice cream brands FanIce and FanYogo.
In a TikTok video, she said she planned to ask the ice cream seller to keep the change after he handed her the two pieces of ice cream. She gave him GH¢5, thinking it was 4 cedis in total.
“I was buying FanYogo on the street. I stopped a man, and I said two, please. One FanIce one FanYogo, strawberry. He hands it to me. I take my GH¢5 bill and I’m ready to tell him to keep the change because I’m thinking it’s going to be GH¢4 maximum.”
However, the ice cream seller told Amanda that one goes for GH¢4, meaning she needs to give him GH¢8.
Amanda expressed shock at the price of ice cream. She added that with these prices, she worries about people coming for Detty December who will pay to have fun.
“I fear for the mandem. If FanYogo and FanIce can be GH¢8 for two, how much is a table?” she quizzed.
