Ghanaian TikTok star and food content creator Afua Nash has opened up on the high cost of living in Accra, revealing that she spends around GH¢5,000 a day to maintain her lifestyle.
Speaking in a recent interview with ZionFelix, Afua Nash lamented that living in the capital city is expensive, especially for social media influencers who constantly appear online.
“It is very expensive to live in Accra. For example, the clothes you wear. I can’t repeat clothes when going out because social media will talk. If I wear an outfit today and I’m videoed in it, I can’t wear it outside again because people will say, ‘Don’t you have clothes? Don’t you have money?’ So I have to get new clothes daily. It’s not easy,” she said.
She disclosed that her most expensive dress cost GH¢5,400, while her most expensive wig was GH¢12,000.
When asked about her daily spending, Afua Nash responded, “It’s a lot oo. I’m not expensive, but I’m expensive. On a normal day, GH¢5,000 is fine, sometimes I spend more. It covers everything including feeding, fuel, call credit, internet data, and outfit for the day.”
Afua Nash added that on days she doesn’t drive, she books rides throughout the day, sometimes spending up to GH¢1,800 just on transportation.
Despite the heavy costs, she affirmed that her social media career and brand deals provide enough income to sustain her lifestyle.
