"How can you increase bread price two times in just one year? I bought this bread for GHc5 (N335) this same year. I also bought it for GHc6 (N403.28). And now you are telling me it is GHc7 (N470.50)?" he asked furiously.

The man's explanation

It is reported that a worker at the factory as well as some bystanders tried to calm the man down but he would not heed their pleas.

He was told it was not the fault of the bread sellers that prices were going up but he also argued the punishment should not go to him because it was not his fault either.

"I completely understand his frustration, businesses are taking advantage of the situation to deliberately increase prices. Prices on petroleum products have been increasing year on year but some prices remained stable during those periods."
