Chamber Pots Gradually Disappearing from Ghanaian Markets.

Chamber pots, traditionally known as "kuraba" in Twi, are becoming increasingly scarce in Ghana due to a lack of raw materials for production. Vendors in markets like Kumasi, Accra, and Sunyani report that local manufacturers have shifted to producing six-liter black plastic buckets as alternatives.Customers, especially caregivers of the elderly and bedridden, express dissatisfaction with these substitutes, citing discomfort and impracticality.
