A young Ghanaian woman who is known by the TikTok handle Talk2Ohemaa currently lives in the United Kingdom.
She recently made a video in which she explained that the circumstances Ghanaians face back home are so hard that each citizen deserves an award by the time they survive a whole year.
According to Ohemaa, life abroad is made to cushion people in times of need but back in Ghana, nothing can be done unless people are able to make the money in cash.
"In Ghana, if you don't have money, you cannot rent but out here, you can be in a difficult position and the government will give you allowance that is big enough to get you a rent. We live on credit but Ghanaians live on debit. They are true heroes and I respect everyone living in Ghana," she said.

Ghanaian man advises citizens to avoid traveling
Interestingly, another young man from Ghana identified with the Twitter handle, @uncleskinnyyyyy, currently stays in Norway according to his bio on the social media platform.
In a recent tweet, he indicated that life abroad is highly overrated, and Ghanaian youth should focus on making it in their home country instead of traveling abroad.
"Guys, stay in Ghana. Abrokyire be scam!!!" was his simple tweet but this has generated massive reactions on social media from people who agree, and others who think his opinion is completely flawed.
