Tic, originally Tic Tac, a Ghanaian hiphop performer, has expressed dissatisfaction with the country’s present economic situation, saying he can barely afford to eat.
Tic recently tweeted that he is astonished at the price of Kenkey, which now costs GH5, and that it has forced him and his family to stop buying because it is one of their favorite foods.
The hiphop musician confessed that throughout his lifetime, kenkey was one of the least expensive delicacies, and he never expected the price to rise to such an extent.
Tic bemoaned the current GH5 pricing of coconuts and raised concern about the health of the Ghanaian economy.
“Honestly i and my household love Kenkey but now we don’t buy it that often because a ball of Kenkey is now GHC 5. I never imagined this day will come whereby kenkey one of the cheapest food in my lifetime will cost that much. Can you imagine one coconut is now GHC5 too. This is the reality”,
He put pen to paper.
His remark comes in the midst of the country’s continuous economic crisis, which has driven more people to express their concerns to the government through protests and angry social media posts.
