This clip shows a roadside business that fixes car exhausts in Community 6 in Tema, in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. I had been using my friend's vehicle to do my rounds, but it was rather noisy, and because I know little about car maintenance, my friend told me the exhaust was rusted. So when I was dropping off his wife on my rounds, we took a detour and got him a new exhaust. Much cheaper than a repair shop (30 Ghana Cedis), and they did quite a good job. Their business was little more than a shelter, a blow torch, some ramps, and replacement pipes and mufflers - not too many overheads to worry about, that's for sure !
Yes, they really need to send an occ health & safety rep out there to assess their working conditions.......
