He added that when he started working, he was working on the day shift because he wanted to get accustomed to the places in Qatar. When he got conversant with the places in Qatar, he then decided to opt for the night shift.
"I signed a contract in Ghana, and when I came to Qatar, i signed another contract. With regards to the promises the agent made me...

The guy has a good voice for radio. He sounds like Adwumura Yaw Nkrumah who used to be on Adom Fm’s Mid-Morning show some years ago

dj_rapcha:
They will only mention the salary but they won’t say anything concerning the visa charges do u think that’s the amount he’s receiving? No. He should tell us how much he pays for visa charges

Let me comment about it. It is not like we can't pay well in Africa to be precise Ghana o. But they intentionally don't pay well to keep you where you are. I remember a white affiliate school in Akyem Tafo which they wanted to pay huge salary of about 1800gh about 14 years ago, but a particular man told them you don't pay black man as such here in Ghana. You will spoil them...
