DR Wilson, a high school teacher from Ghana who travelled to Vietnam about three years ago has recounted how a school in Accra once turned him down for demanding GHc 2,000.

In a post on his Twitter handle, @1achabu, the gentleman indicated that he was told GHc 2,000 was too much for a person of his calibre.

However, with the exact same qualifications, after travelling to Vietnam, Achabu says the amount that was denied him in Ghana is currently not even enough to pay for his rent.
