In Accra alone there are thousands of young women in the ‘kayayei’ business, and like their male counterparts, many of these young girls in this trade came to Accra in search of greener pastures, only to be welcomed with the harsh conditions in the cities.

It will officially be launched on August 17 at the Alisa Hotel, North Ridge, Accra.

The show is proudly produced by the Marvelin House Limited.
