Man abroad discourages lazy people from relocating

YEN.com.gh previously reported that a Ghanaian man had advised lazy people to abandon travelling abroad in search of greener pastures.

The man said the key principle of success abroad is hard work; hence, anyone without that attribute should not bother travelling.

He talked about working for 11 hours non-stop simply because he needed money to pay school fees.
