Shedding more light on this issue, Abena, while drawing a comparison between English spoken in England and that spoken in Scotland, concluded that English spoken by the Scots was faster compared to that spoken by the English.
When asked whether job opportunities abound in Scotland, the young lady responded in the affirmative.
"I beg you, I am unable to hear English spoken by the Scots, so I have returned to England. There are jobs there, but they speak a little bit faster. It's just like Asante Twi and Fante Twi; theirs is a bit faster, but jobs abound in Scotland, and in five to six months, it was okay."
Abena, who works as a healthcare assistant, opened up about her job, where she spoke about the tiring nature of the work.
"Since I came here in 2023, I have been working, but I have only been to work two times. These domiciliary jobs are such that they take away a bit of personal life, so although I didn't go to church, I serve jobs."
Abena concluded by advising Ghanaians who wish to study and subsequently work in the UK to pursue programs that have high demand for graduates, like teaching, engineering, IT, and healthcare jobs.
At the time of writing the report, the video, which had raked in a lot of reactions, was captioned: "There are jobs in Scotland, but their English is too fast."
