I feel there’s a chunk of Ghanaians who view politics like the EPL. NDC = Man United, NPP = Chelsea, CPP = Liverpool, etc.

To them, politics is a form of entertainment rather than something that directly affects their lives.

I think it’s this group that has been determining the outcome of elections.

If it rains for three consecutive days, there will be no Accra left.

I visited Madina Market yesterday and was surprised by how expensive basic produce has become. Tomatoes, peppers, and especially ginger were all much more expensive than I expected.

Some of the traders told me that many of the tomatoes currently on the market come from Burkina Faso, which got me thinking. Ghana has vast areas of fertile land, so why do we still depend so much on imported tomatoes?

Is this mainly a seasonal issue, or does it reflect deeper problems in our agricultural sector? I’d be interested to hear the views of farmers, traders, and anyone familiar with the food supply chain.
