I also heard that the lifestyle of some of these millennials in Ghana is insane and rivals what we have here in America and I'll love to see you do a series on that if possible, exotic cars and houses and boats.

    Ghanaians don't really use smoke alarms or carbon monoxide detectors which is a problem..It is possible to buy them but they are extremely rare.... I'd advice buying them and having them sent to you because those in Ghana could be coming from china and quality can't be assured.

    The hunt for smoke detectors, any good electrical shops selling light fittings etc should sell them.

In a few hundred checks i never had issues with my intl one. in fact the traffic ones north of tml are either drive on or chatting small where im from, if im am ngo or one of the contractors.... thats because of the pickup.
