• A UK-based Ghanaian family travelled to Ghana for the Christmas holidays and visited the Makola market in Accra
• The mother and her four daughters who only went to tour Makola later decided to shop for the things they would travel with back to the UK
• Social media users who watched the video thronged the comment section to share their thoughts on the family's Makola market visit

Four young Ghanaian girls based in the United Kingdom (UK) came to Ghana during the Christmas holidays with their parents and other relatives.

The girls said one place they wanted to visit was the Makola market in the Greater Accra region, so they could feel the ambience of the place.

In a TikTok video, one of them stated that they had been begging their parents to take them to the Makola market since they arrived in Ghana.

The four girls went with their mother and aunt to the market. According to their mother, even though she hadn't planned to shop, the food she saw made her change her mind.

She bought several things to travel back to the UK. They bought cow legs, popularly called kotodwe in Ghana, crabs, wele, salted beef, smoked fish, and goat meat, among others.

They met some of the market women who dance with Official Starter on the Happy Town Project, which is shared on social media.

The girls were excited to meet the women because, according to them, they often watch their videos on social media. They took pictures with the women and continued their Makola tour.
