What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Kwame Owusu Danso (KOD), the running mate of Alan Kyerematen, leader and Presidential candidate of the Afrafranto Alliance, has vowed to revolutionise the nation’s trading and fishing industries under the Great Transformational Plan (GTP).

A statement copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra said he said this during the second day of his Caravan Tour, touching on policies that directly affect the lives of traders and fisherfolk in the country.

In a move that has sent waves of excitement among traders, KOD announced the establishment of the Traders Bank, a dedicated financial institution to support business activities for traders.

“The Traders Bank will not just be for traders, it will be owned by traders. The government will provide the seed funding, but the traders themselves will be at the helm, managing and directing their own financial future,” he said.

This initiative, according to KOD, would ensure that traders have access to affordable credit facilities to expand their businesses without being crippled by high-interest rates.
