Apparently the vendors believe that dog meat business can knock off cocoa and other generators of revenue to be the mainstay of Ghana’s economy if given the needed support to expand their business.
According to one of the traders who spoke to OMAN FM, dog meat has become the delicacy of many after the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus. He further explained that the meat was popular amongst people of Sunyani, Bolgatanga and other towns in the northern region to fish and meat. “Anyone who eats dog meat cannot be harmed spiritually be an evil spirit” the dog butcher stated sarcastically.
“There were plenty dead dogs hanged in the market and customers were negotiating to grab their delicacy home for their meal” the reporter said.
