Some Accra Makola Market women disrupted an ongoing hair sale organized by a Nigerian hair dealer at Dansoman over the weekend. According to the Ghanaian market women, they import their wigs, raw hair and other hair accessories from Nigeria to sell with high custom duties.

The Nigerian businesswoman was selling the wigs at very low prices than the prices they bought from their deals in Nigeria. Some Twitter users have bashed the Makola Market women after footage from the hair fair was shared online.

The Nigerian businesswoman who was selling the wigs at the hair fair is the owner of Priceless Hair, a Nigerian hair production company founded by Nigerian entrepreneur Dr. Chi. She is allegedly the main supplier to most of their hair retailers in Ghana’s largest trading market Makola.

Dr. Chi ran partnerships with various Ghanaian influencers like John Jumelo, Roselyn Ngissah, Ekurah Toktok and others in preparation for the wig fair event.
