"... This is my truth; 80 percent of the youth are a bit lazy," she told her fellow panellists and an audience.

Asked why she would say that, the fashion blogger reiterated that she runs her own business but works harder than everyone on her team.

''I run my own business, and this is our 12th year of doing this. I work six days weekly, which is my own business. However, I am more concerned about the salaries I must pay at the end of the month.
"Why am I working more than everybody else when everybody has a day off? ... The people who are supposed to be doing the work for us to have the money to pay them are always complaining. There's always an excuse," she said.

Nanaama.abeka commented:

Tell her to please keep quiet. Imagine waking up 4 am n going to sleep at 10 pm for a whole month, and just tnt alone is 450.00, and you pay them 750.00 a month continually for 3yrs. If you want the person to kill himself, he should sleep at home n stop wasting his energy.

Go to the rural areas and see how people wake up around 4 am and set off to their farms; they work till daybreak. Have you been to Tamale to see how hard those people work on their farms (may God bless them). People are trying their best, things are just not working out ..

I agree with her, and that's a fact she's spitting!!! Once you employ them, they already have an agenda! They want to share everything with you without considering how long you built your brand or business! The best someone can do to work diligently.
