Ghanaian boy says mother’s GH₵50 is insufficient

A young Ghanaian boy expressed frustration over the amount of money his mother gives him daily, saying it was not enough.

In a Facebook video, he demanded that his mother either increase the daily amount or give him a job so he could earn his own money.

The boy did not specify what type of job he wanted but insisted, “I don’t want her money. She should give me a job so I can make my own money.”

It is unclear whether his mother is in a position to employ him.
