Kobina Aidoo, the brain behind the Kenkey Index, voiced these concerns during an interview eith Accra-based Citi TV with Bernard Avle.

Aidoo expressed curiosity about the driving forces behind the steep kenkey prices in Dzorwulu and other identified areas, pondering whether immigrant communities played a role in this economic dynamic.

Aidoo emphasized that not all kenkey is created equal, noting a significant affordability factor in coastal areas. Places like Haatso, Madina, Sakumono, Nungua, Cantonments, Labone, Odorkor, Awoshie, and Weija are reported to offer relatively reasonable prices for the beloved Ghanaian dish.
