Maxwell, who had been living abroad for many years, suggested that it was difficult to cope with the weather abroad.
In a video shared on his TikTok page, the Ghanaian man was seen walking in thick snow while complaining about the weather.
Because of this experience, Maxwell said he appreciated the struggle that most of his fellow countrymen and women were facing abroad.
"God is wonderful; what a country. All the cars have frozen and it's also difficult to be in this country without a car because everywhere is full of ice. It's like we are in a fridge. Salmon, tilapia, we are your friends," he said.
His complaints were an indication that life abroad is tough, hustling through the cold weather overseas to make ends meet.
Consequently, Maxwell advised Ghanaians planning to travel abroad for greener pastures to prepare for tough conditions.
"Please dress well before going out in the snow," he wrote.
