  "account": "Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie has urged street vendors to prioritize hygiene to improve their sales. The rapper pointed out that simple measures such as protective gear can make a significant difference in business for roadside vendors, who sell food to millions of Ghanaians daily. The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has previously warned against food sold near open gutters and conducted trainings in Madina to promote cleanliness and trust among consumers. In a social media post, Sarkodie emphasized that the adoption of basic hygiene practices like gloves, nose masks, and hair caps would boost sales significantly. His message has resonated with many on social media, who have called on city authorities to intensify efforts to promote hygiene maintenance among street vendors. Some critics, however, argue that some vendors should not be present on the streets in the first place.",
