Some Ghanaians reacted to the details by Safo Kantanka Junior concerning the Wanderlust group

Some Ghanaians reacted differently to the video, as some complained about the delay by businessmen in replying to emails.

Lydiaforson commented:

This aside, the truth is getting funding or support for anything in Ghana is almost impossible. You have to prove that you can, and then everyone will jump on the bandwagon and want to associate with its success. This cuts across the board, as we’re unwilling to take risks.

bengroovesgh commented:

Most businesses in Ghana don’t reply to emails, even their social media DMs it takes weeks.

chrystalkaryee commented:

Nah, they missed out. Straight-up slacked. All these explanations aren’t necessary. Hopefully, the next time someone requests for sponsorship, they will actually look at the proposals or give them a listening ear. ✌
