The unemployment situation in Ghana is getting worse by the day despite efforts by the government to create jobs for the teeming youth in the country.
The country's unemployment rate currently stands at 14.7 per cent according to the Annual Household Income and Expenditure Survey report for quarter three by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS).
Without an end in sight regarding the unemployment situation in Ghana, many graduates have been rendered unproductive and hopeless, turning them into burdens on their relatives and society
This is, perhaps, what gave the waste collector the impetus to ridicule job seekers, particularly university graduates in the country.
Ghanaians online react
The video of the inscription on the waste collector's truck has since gone viral on X with many Ghanaians reacting to it.
Popular Ghanaian YouTuber, Kwadwo Sheldon (@kwadwosheldon) posted the video on his page with a few words.
"What man no go see for this country? Now waste truck drivers saf dey drag poor CV holders. Ah well, I’m all for it."
@stnrboy254 also said:
"Useless country sei... No job, u go talk ahh, somebody go dey ask u say; do u knw where I started from???....mmoa sem."
