Life abroad offers opportunities, but it is not for everyone - Slim Buster

Ghanaian musician Slim Buster has advised Ghanaians to recognise that life overseas does not guarantee success for everyone, urging those who struggle to thrive to consider returning home. Speaking on UTV, the musician said his own perception of life abroad changed after a friend pointed out that his life in Ghana was better and encouraged him to return. He recalled travelling abroad for a purchase but eventually staying longer than he had initially anticipated because he felt comfortable there. However, a conversation with his friend made him reconsider staying overseas and began returning to Ghana more frequently. “I met a friend and he told me my life in Ghana was way better and that he suggested I should come back. That is what changed my perception, and I started coming to Ghana more often,” he recounted. Slim Buster acknowledged that living abroad offers significant opportunities, but stressed that experiences differ and not everyone can succeed overseas. He noted that while some people are fortunate enough to establish themselves abroad, others may find it difficult to make progress in those environments. “Abroad is good for others, and equally, others too cannot thrive there, so if you can’t, it’s better you come home,” he said. The musician added that some Ghanaians, including himself, have been fortunate to succeed abroad, but maintained that returning home should not be viewed as a failure for those who cannot thrive overseas.Source: mynewsgh.com
