On the streets of Ghana�s top cities, Kumasi and Accra, it is easy to observe increases in the perennial beggars � from the physically disabled to healthy men and women of all ages. �Please could you spare some change,� is a constant irritating tune. Aside from the beggars, more Ghanaians are falling below the poverty line of US$2.00 a day. No doubt, labour strikes have become daily occurrence.
