John Mahama, the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has expressed his concern about the rising cost of living in Ghana. Specifically, he lamented the high price of kenkey, a traditional Ghanaian food.

Mahama revealed that he personally enjoys eating kenkey and usually consumes two or three kenkey balls at a time. However, he was shocked to discover that eating three kenkey balls now costs a whopping 15 cedis.

The former President's comment highlights the economic hardship faced by many Ghanaians. The rising cost of food and other essential items has made it difficult for people to make ends meet. Mahama's personal experience with the high cost of kenkey serves as a reminder of the need for effective economic policies to address the challenges faced by ordinary Ghanaians.

Mahama's lament about the high cost of kenkey is likely to resonate with many Ghanaians who are struggling to cope with the rising cost of living. As a presidential candidate, Mahama's comments suggest that he is committed to addressing the economic challenges faced by Ghanaians and finding ways to make life more affordable for all.
