Successful forex trader Kojo Forex has stirred controversy online after calling Ghanaian youth lazy and lacking in innovation. He blamed the incumbent government for the situation in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

The post has sparked mixed reactions. Some young Ghanaians agreed, saying many in their generation need to take more initiative. They argued that a lack of ambition and over-reliance on government support was holding back progress.

Others strongly disagreed, pointing out the challenges youth face. They noted high unemployment rates, limited access to funding, and a lack of government support for small businesses. These critics argued that the problem lies in the country’s structure, not the mindset of its youth.
