Ghanaian hiplife musician, Tic, formerly, Tic Tac, has expressed disappointment about the current state of the country’s economy, adding that he can barely afford to eat.

According to Tic, in a recent tweet, he is amazed at the price of Kenkey which costs GH5 now, and has forced him and his family to quit buying, because it is one of their favourite dishes.
