Asamoah, a Ghanaian trader residing in Ivory Coast, has shared insights into the economic differences between Ghana and Ivory Coast, highlighting what he perceives as a more favorable economic environment in Ivory Coast.
In an interview with a TV3 journalist, Asamoah expressed his observation that the cost of living in Ivory Coast has remained relatively stable compared to Ghana.
"I came here in 2019, so I've been here for about 5 years. But the thing we used to buy with the CFA franc, which is like GH2.50 pesewas over here, it is the same. It has not changed," he explained.
Several traders echoed similar sentiments, noting the favorable business climate and infrastructure development in Ivory Coast. They expressed plans to continue living and working in Ivory Coast due to the perceived challenges in Ghana.
"There are a lot of things working here in terms of development and business climate. In terms of roads, Ghana cannot match up," one trader remarked.
"Things are difficult in Ghana. Coming to Ivory Coast has been the best decision. So you live where you are comfortable," another trader added.
