Jojo Mills recounts early struggles after relocating
Jojo Mills Robertson recently took to his official TikTok page to recount how he lost a job after he was nominated and subsequently voted to lead a workers' union as an immigrant using a legal citizen's documentation to work in the US legally.
The Efiewura TV series actor said he initially involved himself in every activity after being employed in New York, even though he did not know about it. He noted that he was chosen to speak on behalf of the workers because of his good work ethic.
Jojo Mills Robertson noted that he consulted the owner of his work documents, who advised him against taking the role and finding himself in trouble with the authorities later.
He said that he later lied to his deputy about a family emergency and permanently quit the job even though he earned a good salary there.
The comic actor noted he struggled to find other jobs and stayed at home for a while as the workers were part of the union he and his former colleagues were members of.
Jojo Mills Robertson advised Ghanaians to humble themselves whenever they travelled abroad and got the opportunity to use other individuals' documents to work.
He urged Ghanaians to avoid work-related activities like strikes and unions, as any issues could negatively impact them and the owners of their work documents.
