    He was talking about struggling in the US. Education is the key to success. Graduates in Ghana will eventually get jobs once the economy grows. Government cannot provide jobs for all.

    Many of those jobless Ghanaians in the USA are equally well educated, they migrated there without documents. Some would have stayed back home if the govt had created jobs. Don't think it's a joy to travel outside.

    The value of any man's education is expressed in how he used his education to solved problems to lift people up. Under this premis most educated African political leaders, including Mr. Smith are useless. What is the value of ...

    All the Houseboys that late JJ Rawlings had when he was alive are known for rubbish talk. Name them Victor Smith, Asiedu Nketia & Kofi Adams. They acquired that bad habit from their Senseless Wicked Dictator Boss.

    It’s rather unfortunate that we have a Ghana ambassador in the US who has no clue about the plight of Ghanaian immigrants. As an illegal immigrant you don’t have the option to continue your education until your legal stat ...

    Why are you in the US illegally. Most of such people don't even have high school education.

    Don't presume. You're making that comment with a political reason undertone. The general belief is majority of those Ghanaian migrants are Akans who are uneducated. Can I also say Carpenters & masons unemployed in ...

    The issues are not one size fits all. Those who swore to shove the twi down everyones throat to cover for their own illiteracy get a reality check. Some people are even locked out of the chance of taking a GED if their last ...

    Ghanaians don't like going to school.
    The go to foreign lands for quick hustle.
    When you get to the west invest 4 to 5 years in education and the rest will be easy

    What an uninformed ambassador. Simple logic should tell Victor Smith that anyone playing hide-and-seek with ICE is almost certain to be in the country illegally. So how in his thinking would such persons enroll in a trade sch ...

    Go to school? Will you pay for their tuition? Will you cure their immigration issues so that they can be admitted into these schools? If your embassy can't help them, then leave them alone as they try to navigate Trump's deme ...

    His brains is fucked up big time. How can someone without a green card be able to go to school? Without financial aid and proper documentation it will be extremely difficult for someone to go to school even if that person has ...

    Government can not create jobs for all Ghanaians even in advance world. It is not only government that create jobs it’s we should put that in mind.
