Actress Benedicta Gafah recently made public a conversation she had with her female housekeeper, who requested a pay hike due to Ghana’s rising cost of living.
Benedicta Gafah asserts that she has agreed to her housekeeper’s demands since she can comprehend the complaints of her fellow countrymen in Ghana regarding their financial situation.
The Kumawood star claimed on Facebook on Wednesday that prices had increased significantly as a result of the Ghana cedi’s depreciation against the US dollar.
The 30-year-old wrote in a Facebook post dated September 6 and it reads;
“My househelp politely asked for an increment in her monthly salary, then I asked her why I should do that..she said due to the high prices of basic needs, the money is unable to sustain her for the whole month…
And it dawned on me that 1 dollar is now 10gh. So she’s right about it…And I honestly love the fact that she was able to open up to me, not forgetting she’s a single mother as well….And we all know that once the dollar goes up, it rapidly affects the price of every single thing. Interesting times,”
