“Beer is a Basic Commodity” – Ghana Drunkards Association Gives Government 3-Week Deadline to Cut Booze Prices
The Ghana Drunkards Association has issued a three-week ultimatum to their government, demanding an immediate reduction in the prices of alcoholic beverages.
The Association, which claims to represent over 16 million members, argues that the Ghanaian cedi has been gaining strength against the US dollar and other major currencies—yet alcohol prices remain stubbornly high.
They say this is not only unfair to their loyal drinkers but also an insult to the average Ghanaian trying to enjoy a cold one after a long day.
Speaking through their spokesperson, the group made it clear that they are ready to take to the streets if nothing changes.
“We don’t understand how the cedi is performing well but our favourite drinks are still expensive. If nothing is done in three weeks, we will stage a massive protest,” he warned.
The Association added that alcohol, just like food and fuel, is a basic necessity for many of their members and should be treated as such.
