"But after all, I blame our leaders because if Ghana had been developed, we wouldn't be celebrating the USA as we do now...A USA citizen will never celebrate because he had the opportunity to come and be a tutor or lecturer here in Ghana. God is good."

"Abroad is not that big a deal; lots of diasporans want to move back to Ghana or are in the process of setting themselves up to permanently move back. Africa is the future, and Ghana is one of the target destinations for anglophones in the diaspora."

"Indeed! That's very true. Being employed there as an English Tutor really speaks volumes, and we say congratulations to you."
