General News of Tuesday, 31 December 2019Source: www.ghanaweb.comYear of Return: Gabby Otchere-Darko begs traders to be considerate with pricing diasporansGabby Asare Otchere-DarkoA leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko has pleaded with Ghanaian traders not to overcharge diasporans who have returned home to celebrate the Year of Return initiative launched by President Akufo-Addo. According to him, the pricing attitude of both traders and service providers will determine whether or not diasporans would come back to Ghana in subsequent years to enjoy the yearly programme which will be held in December. In a tweet sighted by GhanaWeb, the cousin to President Akufo-Addo said “Message to traders and all service providers in Ghana: If you want those who have returned to return please don’t overcharge them. Despite these hitches, President Akufo-Addo on Monday deemed this Year of Return initiative a success following the pumping in of about 1.9 billion dollars into the economy. We had hoped that it will have a big resonance but it has had a much bigger resonance than anticipated.
