Popular term ‘Azaa’ hits market women
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

It has emerged that Ghanaian women engaged in trading at various market centers in Ghana earn the popular name ‘Azaa’, which in English means ‘cheat’.

According to the buyers, market women have raised prices of some commodities higher than the expected market prices. They also claim that they do understand market women trade for money but the prices are too harsh on them that they buyers cannot afford.

Some of the sellers in an interview with Happy FM expressed worry over the fact that buyers address to them as ‘Azaa’ which they totally dislike. They explained further that “we do our business to make profit and not run at a loss hence we have no option but to do so.”

They added that, “we all come from different backgrounds, it is just the word market which binds us all. Some of us would decide to reduce prices of our commodities but others would not.”

However, they denied claims of cheating their customers, rather, they said their manufacturers are to be blamed because they inflate prices.

“Let’s say I bought fresh tomatoes from a farmer in the village, he sells fifteen for me for GHS10. If I’m also selling it to a buyer in the market, I can`t sell it the same price I bought it because I have to make profit so I will sell it around GHS15 or GHS20,” a trader who spoke to the station stated.
