Absence of electricity at Nasuan creates big business

The absence of electricity in the Nasuan community in the Bunkpurugu/Yunyoo District in Northern Region has created huge market opportunity for the youth, who have resorted to the use of generators to charge mobile phones.

The dealers in the small scale enterprises make between GH¢30.00 to GH¢80.00 per day due to the demand for the usage of mobile phones.

Ibrahim Janbedoo, a mobile phone charger who spoke to the Ghana News Agency said he makes between GH¢80.00 to GH¢100.00 per day.

Ibrahim Salifu, another mobile phone charger said he could charge between 30 to 40 phones per day.

Mr Adjei Yajim Iddrisu, a teacher in the community said he spent about GH¢14.00 per month in charging his mobile phone and appealed to the Government to extend electricity to the area.
