    Ah, why do people even convert smh. UK's minimum monthly salary is approximately £1,400 which is GH¢24,300. The minimum monthly salary in Ghana is like GH¢400 which is £23. Many in the country dont even make up to £100 which is GH¢1,700 per month. So why convert and compare prices smh.

    You don't just convert pounds that into cedis and call it a day. The Economy there is vastly different from Ghana. Earning money monthly will/can mostly be exhausted by paying rent, electricity, and other expenses. If you actually lived there you wouldn't be saying all this just because you think the currency value is higher than ours. Please take time to do your research before getting into conclusions like this

    I just bought 6 plantains for £2 (3 for a pound), somewhere in East London. It depends on where you shop. My workplace is not far from this area where you sometimes get 4 ripe plantains (hard not soft) for £1 at the Afro-Caribbean shops.
    It's sometimes 3 for £2 though, but this Asian owner told me he sells his own plantains cheap to break even so he doesn't end up with overripe plantains which will eventually go in the bin.

    Just a little breakdown, UK untaxed monthly income is £1.2k (20.8k ghc) take out rent den things £700 - £900 + food shopping, depending on location and lifestyle.
    The job you'll do to get that amount per month, people will never get that much in Ghana or in most African countries.
    So I don't understand why they always compare. If Ghana currency is to be doing well, they won't even compare because the money will be less😂 I remember £1 being 5 cedis.

If someone complains about the price of indigenous Ghanaian foods in UK, such as plantain then they should consider returning to Ghana to get them at cheaper prices, enjoy less income and experience dumsor in multiple folds. lol

    .He is complaining based on the following reasons
    1. Aba fresh with conversion syndrome
    2. Mr I won't change... want to eat Ghana food everyday...
    3. Mr comfortable... OK with his job so earning same small money for years when prices have gone up so money doesn't go far...
    4. Abusua they bore am.. He sends money and keeps getting pressure so want to tell them he's struggling to get his favourite Ghana dishes whiles the abusa is getting pounds to nani and enjoy..
    We all like our Ghana food so either work to get extra cash to afford or start eating rice, spaghetti, potatoes and salad to supplement the occasional Ghana food...

      😮 Faulty generalisation.
      Those in UK? Say some. It could be that this person is 'aba fresh'.
      When I first got here, hair braiders were charging £25 for ordinary braids where I used to live in South London. I thought I was never going to pay to have my hair done in the UK. Though I never converted when paying for goods and services, I was so shocked to see people paying and changing their hairstyles anyhow. Today, I pay more than twice that amount if I don't get my hair done myself without complaining like I used to do. However, I still know some Ghanaians who even though make more than I do, will not have a decent meal at a nice restaurant or take their kids out during school breaks because they're converting the money in terms of how many bags of cement they can buy out of that money. Each to their own.
      We're all not stingy as you asserted. When people back home randomly call me for freebies, I don't just give them. I only give out when it's important and convenient for me too. It doesn't mean we're stingy. We need to take care of ourselves too.

      @@symplyemy62 As adey Ghana here, I can give out GHS200 easily to a friend, relative or colleague though I don't earn much as they do in the UK. It's just "chiselness" and they always converting to cedis which makes it seem like they're sending you billions once they check what they can do with that amount if they were to be in Ghana.

    KSS is now a huge platform, you lot should begin putting in some research when it comes to facts and figures(not opinions). Minimum wage in UK is 11.44 not 12.5. To be fair, the difference doesn't take much away from the conversation but the problem is, someone would say this somewhere else as facts because they saw it on KSS.

    Y’all been sitting here everyday complaining how everything in Ghana is becoming expensive and bashing government every time. So what is wrong with us also complaining if cost of living in the uk is sky rocketing?
