COVID-19, Ukraine Crisis Cause of Hardship In Ghana – Majority Leader
The Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has said that the combined effects of the coronavirus pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine have brought untold hardship to Ghanaians.
“Once petroleum prices go up, of course, you’ll see the fares of transport going up and it also has effect on the goods that we produce in the countryside and bringing them down to the cities,” the MP for Suame told the Parliamentary correspondent of Asaase Radio Philip Asiawo.
“So, food prices are going to go up. Again, unfortunately, the COVID-19 experience and the Russian invasion of Ukraine experience; the combined effect of the two really, are going to inflict untold hardship on Ghanaians,” he said.
