Don’t Buy 30 pesewas Pure Water – GYFD to Ghanaians
Is it not enough to buy something at 4.00 Ghc and gain a profit of 2Ghc? The Police must arrest people selling pure water at 0.30p.
We the Ghana Youth For Development (GYFD) will not buy 30Pesewas pure water though the price per bag has been increased.
Previously, it was 3.00 Cedi per bag and those who have brought fridges to trade sells it at 3.50p so that the common pure water seller who don’t have money to purchase a refrigerator will go there and buy the already chilled water and sell.
After selling a bag of sachet water, a profit of 2.50p is been gained.
Today, the price has been increased from 3.00 Cedi to 3.50 pesewas per bag so the one who have bought his/her own fridge to chill the water for the common pure water seller have also increase the price from 3.50p to 4.00 Cedi which is very reasonable.
The bag of sachet water now gives a profit of 2.00 Ghana cedis. Is it not enough??? Aahh Ghana
GYFD do remember that, after the water companies increased their price they made a strong warning to the costumers that there should not be an increase in price to the Ghanaians, so why the increase.
GYFD have realizes that, some pure water sellers have increased their prices just to cheat Ghanaians hence for the call.
If one buy a commodity at 4.00 cedi and sell it at 0.30p will gain a profit of 5.00 because 0.30p times 30 will give you 9.00 Cedi which is a cheat.
If any Pure Water seller think buying something at 4.00 Cedi to gain 2.00 profit it not enough then they should stop and allow those who are selling it at 20p to sell.
Fellow Ghanaians, if you buy the water at such price you are helping them to cheat the ordinary man on the street and also helping them to get rich overnight, so report any pure water seller selling it at 0.30p to the police.
GYFD is also calling on the Ghana Police Service, the Inspector General Of Police (IGP) John Boanuh to instruct his men to enforce the order of “There should be no increase in price to the ordinary man on the street”.
Help all help fight these selfish interest of some pure water sellers.
Long live Ghana
