Omari Osei, a Ghanaian man living abroad, has shared what inspired him to stay and work in the UK.

He explained that he would receive what he was due to him promptly. He compared it to working in Ghana, where employers demand high efficiency but do not pay the required amount. He said this makes most employees in Ghana face financial hardships or fail to give their best.

“The employers in Ghana are to be blamed. They don't pay the workers well, so they don't put in effort. Don't expect them to give off their best if you haven't paid salaries."

"In the UK, no one compels me to be diligent because I receive my salary on time. I even want to work more hours because I know I will receive what I am due," he explained.

Omari Osei concluded that working in the UK is more demanding than in Ghana. He almost moved back to Ghana after he arrived in the UK earlier.
