In a video on X, the young lady said she does not feel scared walking on the streets where she resides in Ghana, no matter the time.
However, she indicated that she could not say the same when in Nigeria.
"You won't even be scared if you are in Ghana and you come out at dawn. Everywhere is just quiet. I don't know how Ghanaians train their citizens, but you can even hold your phone. Even in the afternoon in Nigeria, I can't hold my phone. But Ghanaians, I don't know how they train them. This country is so sweet to live in."
The young lady said her neighbourhood in Ghana is so calm and free of thieves that she can walk with her phone in her hand.
She noted that in Nigeria, even in the afternoon, criminals could take her phone from her.
The young lady applauded Ghanaians for their hospitality and security; she indicated that she felt safer in the neighbouring country than in Nigeria.
