Ghanaian Man Laments On How He Worked 18 Hours A Day Back Home And Earned Less, But While Abroad His Toil Is Not In Vain
Graduate Laments Wasting His Time In Ghana: “I Could Work 18 Hours A Day And Earn Less Than 200 Cedis”
A video of a Ghanaian man detailing why he will gladly work long hours abroad has caused a stir online.
In a TikTok video, the man recounted how he often worked very hard in Ghana and made little money.
Social media users who reacted to the video agreed with his assertion.
A young Ghanaian man has got tongues wagging after he opened up about his time living in Ghana compared to now that he lives abroad.
In a video on TikTok, the young man recounted that he worked as an online driver while he was studying for his master’s degree at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology and could say confidently that he earned very little from the work he did.
He explained that although he was ambitious and wanted to make something meaningful with his life, the prevailing conditions at the time would simply not allow him.
“I was doing my masters at KNUST and I was working as a Bolt driver at the same time. On days that I didn’t go for lecturers, I could work for 18 hours and earn less than 200 cedis as profit.”
The young man added that now that he lives abroad, he takes delight in reciprocating that hard work especially as he knows that his toil will not be in vain. “Now that I am working here, I can’t say I am tired. In fact, when I was working in Ghana I wasn’t earning enough money so now that I am here, I will gladly work and die abroad than work in Ghana,” he said.
