“What you guys are doing is bad. You have met a nice guy, the two of you seem to have a good vibe, everything is okay, you both are with each other and have been dating for a month or two. Upon hearing he does not have legal status, you no longer pick his calls.”

Looking visibly displeased, he admonished Ghanaian ladies in the US with permanent status to forgo the idea of dumping men simply because they do not have the necessary documents to ensure they stay in the US permanently.
