I’m a Ghanaian living in Ghana and the recharge card bit shocks me too lol. If you bought MTN, thing is MTN DOES NOT sell recharge cards. They rather do transfers where the vendor will send you the airtime electronically and I think you get 1% less the amount you bought. If you want the full amount, you’d have to add that 1% amount to it OR you can just buy from Mobile Money account where you get how much you actually buy and then 100% bonus. The whole idea is to encourage customers to use the Mobile Money service. The other telcos all have actual recharge cards where you get what you actually buy.

Your accent is so Ghanaian. In fact you look so Ghanaian. Tell your husband you want to settle there. Actually Nigerian music is very close to that of Ghana. Highlife music from Eastern Nigeria are almost identical.Rex Jim lawson in particular. Remember, Fêla Ransome Kuti came to study Afro music in Ghana during the 70s. Nigerians have the impression that Ghana is very small so distances are close but it is not the case. Yes, Accra is very hot but if you went to Aburi and the eastern région, it is quite cool. Ghanaians love thier country and colors, almost and obsession. Lots of hôtels in Accra are quoted in $ but is not the same in other parts in Ghana

First time viewer. Thanks for you video observation. Surprised you didn't know the time difference. The Greenwich Meridian passes through Ghana and Nigeria is to the east of the Meridian, one time zone away, hence the difference. Well, now you know. The soup bowl. You realize our soups are lighter/watery whereas Nigerian soups are heavier/thicker. Ever had ogbono soup? You don't need much to conquer a big eba. A little goes a long way. Big soup bowls? Never mind, big bowls do not consume food. As for your guide who painted a horrifying picture of the folks at James Town, sorry a fool was designated to be your tour guide. Such people need not be offered that job. Of course he is from a certain tribe who harbour animosity towards every other tribe. I am happy you saw what he is! Music is universal and if it is good, we will listen to it. In the 80's Ghanaian music was a craze in Nigeria. Ever heard of Kofi Sammy?. Too young to know, way too young, Vera! Talk of distance. Nigeria is more than three times the size of Ghana. Go from Lagos to Yankari game reserve and see how far you have to go. On a trip there in the 80's, I asked several times, "are we there yet? And our roads are not as good as Nigerian roads, making trips appear longer. Accent. I have met people from all over the world, socially and professionally .They all carry their unique accents. Listen to an Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa speak English. It is as if they are from different parts of the continent. Read this; in the United States, there is a distinct accent between individual states. Listen to speeches by American presidents, they all have their nice accents. Anyway, nice listening to your take on our differences that unite us.

When there is an outage in Ghana they will tell the people living in the area by announcing it on the radio. They usually shut down during the day for a few hours to service or upgrade the substations. For example they are always expanding power capacity due to population growth so they may shut down to upgrade or extend to the next district or town or improve output.

The mtn recharge charge was correct because you did it by a vendor. Some or almost all providers have stopped selling recharge cards. Almost everyone has mobile money on their phone so you buy your phone credit using your momo ( mobile money). If you however buy the credit from any of the mtn or the provider's office then you don't pay for any surcharges.

The deduction from the recharge cards is from electronic levies or e-tax...

I’m sure you got EVD(Electronic Voucher Distribution) which is what the vendors sell to you because MTN has stopped the sale of recharge cards. That GhC 2 is the 10% profit that the vendor gets for reselling the airtime for MTN. If you had a mobile money account and bought the airtime electronically by yourself, you would’ve received the whole amount you paid for. So those telling you you were scammed/cheated are wrong. It’s just how the business is. Lovely video by the way ❤

With the airtime billing, you could have simply bought it with your phone using short codes (you get exactly what you requested). However, when you buy the airtime from vendors, they deduct their commission for the service they rendered to you. Physical MTN recharge cards are not available in recent years, so on the phone or via a MOMO vendor is plausible.

Big companies used generators at times. But households is like 2% yeah.

Personally since I was born that's 25years ago we never had generator at home. It's only a hand full that have generator

The dollar issue. Due to the open and flexible exchange rate policy, the cedi dollar rates keep changing in a day or all the time. Hoteliers dont want to keep changing rates according to the fluctuations of the day all the time. So they prefer to price in dollars for stability yet you pay in local currency at the rate available the time you are making payment. It is illegal though
