What's the impact on women in Ghana of the 'Sugar Daddy' culture?
Sometimes a story catches the imagination of a nation and really gets people talking. That’s certainly the case in Ghana – after a woman took her boss to court last month for reneging on a deal in which he promised to pay her rent and buy her a car if she had a sexual relationship with him. When it all went sour, he took the car back. It’s all got people discussing what the workplace is like for young women starting their careers and the shocking power imbalance in the workplace. Many Ghanaian women have come onto Twitter saying sexual harassment is a reality they face daily. That they’re EXPECTED to look for a sugar daddy. Some young men say they look forward to a day they’re important enough to have both a wife and a young mistress. Today on Africa Daily, Akwasi Sarpong talks about the issue with two women: actress, writer and film producer, Lydia Forson; and Boakyewaa Glover, a published author and a human resources professional specialising in organisational psychology.
