Two young Ghanaian men currently living in the United States of America have ignited a debate on social media after they admonished persons who are gainfully employed in Ghana with good incomes not to travel abroad in search of greener pastures.

In the video that has since gone viral, the duo explained that people who are living a life of comfort in Ghana should not bother travelling abroad because life in another man's country is not easy.

They buttressed their point by saying that there is no reason for someone who is already living a soft life back home to travel abroad only to stress themselves with work when such a person could remain in Ghana and continue to enjoy whatever he or she is getting from his or her workplace.

"What we go through is not easy and I am not saying do not travel, but left to me if you have money, a place to sleep and even a car, I don't see the reason why you should travel with the intent of seeking greener pastures. Such people will come here and eventually cry because they are filled with regret," one of them said.

At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in over 300 likes and 40 comments.
