Mr Happiness Shades Critics: "I'm Uneducated But Educated People Are Discussing Me In Ghana"
- Kofi Gabs, the Ghanaian man based in the Netherlands has shaded his critics who consider him uneducated
- This is in response to widespread criticism about a claim he made, saying that the Dutch passport is superior to a PhD awarded by any university in Ghana
- Kofi said he is surprised that an "uneducated" person like him could trigger the whole country to be talking about him
Mr Happiness, a Ghanaian man based abroad has become a subject of intense debate online after he asserted that a Dutch passport is more valuable than a PhD from any university in Ghana.
His comments were considered distasteful by a section of Ghanaians on social media, as they took him to the cleaners.
However, Mr Happiness, famously known as Kofi Gabs, seemed unbothered by the barrage of criticism and in some cases, plain insult spewed at him.
After his first video which triggered Ghanaians, Kofi Gabs has gone ahead to release more clips of himself reiterating and maintaining his earlier opinion.
In a new video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Mr Happiness, who left the shores of Ghana in 2018 for the Netherlands, appears to be throwing shades at his critics.
Kofi Gabs, who recently acquired his Dutch citizenship, said he is surprised that an "uneducated" person like him could rile an entire nation to become a topic for discussion.
"By the Ghanaian standard, I'm uneducated because I have never been to the university before yet I made a video a few days ago because I'm now Dutch, by the way, you don't get this passport for free, you have to write an exam, you have to go through a process, and the educated people in Ghana are discussing what the uneducated person, by their standard, said,” he stated.
