The Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA), among others, have been urged by the People’s National Convention (PNC) to open their stores to customers.
Due to the rising cost of living and the constant depreciation of the Ghanaian cedi against the major international trade currencies, particularly the US dollar, with which the majority of them conduct business, the traders recently closed their stores in the central business district in protest against the government.
Visits to the CBD revealed a slowdown in activity since the majority of the GUTA members’ stores were still closed.
