Twene Jonas Calls Out Kofi Gabs, Asks Him To Stop Bragging: "Even US Passport Holders Are Quiet"
- Ghanaian social media sensation Twene Jonas has lambasted Mr Happiness for his recent rant about the value of his Dutch passport
- He cautioned Mr Happiness to shut up and stop bragging about his Dutch passport, which is nothing compared to his American passport
- Many who saw the video thronged the comments section to react, with some correcting him that the Dutch passport ranked highly than the American passport
Twene Jonas, a controversial Ghanaian social media sensation based in the US, has waded into the raging Ghanaian PhD versus Dutch passport debate, clapping back on Mr Happiness.
According to Twene Jonas, Mr Happiness, also known as Kofi Gabs, is becoming a nuisance on social media, bragging about his recently conferred Dutch citizenship.
In what is shaping up to be a feud between two loudmouths on social media, Twene Jonas said that even those with American passports are not out there making noise, rubbishing Mr. Happiness' European citizenship.
Twene Jonas further made some comments suggesting that Kofi Gabs may have acquired his Dutch citizenship through the help of his girlfriend in the Netherlands, who he has been flaunting on social media.
"You are lucky to have met a white lady who helped you to get your citizenship, so shut up and stop bragging. Even those of us with American passports are quiet. If you have a white woman, I also have some; I even have them in different types," he said.
Twene Jonas is one of the many Ghanaians who seemed triggered and uncomfortable with Kofi Gabs' disregard for the academia in Ghana.
Mr Happiness has courted mixed attention on social media after he asserted that his Dutch passport is more valuable than a PhD awarded from any university in Ghana.
While he seems to enjoy the support of the masses, many others find his comparison baseless and senseless.
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, Counsellor Daniel Fenyin said due to the lack of opportunities people turn to devalue educational qualifications in Ghana.
"The scenario indicates that despite despite advanced education, Ghanaian PhD holders face limited career prospects, low wages, and underemployment. It suggest that the education system may not be aligned with market needs, resulting in a disconnect between academic qualifications and employability." he added.

Kofi Gabs continues to drag PhD holders in Ghana
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh reported that Mr Happiness, the Ghanaian-turn-Dutch, seems to be enjoying the attention he is getting from dragging PhD holders in Ghana.
