Based on Kumasi's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
 | Product Designer @ Filestage |
 | Product Manager @ ReCharge Payments |
 | Senior Front-End Developer @ PolySwarm |
 | Web Designer @ komoot |
 | Senior Designer @ Gravity Forms |
For internet, don't bother with landline. Just pay for the biggest 4G plan you can get and tether constantly, save yourself the headache. Kukun is the nicest coworking spot, but very expensive, even by international standards ($90usd/week).
