"I told him that anyone who will ever tell him to come down even for a funeral is a witch or wizard. He should stay there and marry a woman in that land and raise his children there," he further mentioned.
The anonymous father concluded by explaining that his stance was informed by his assessment of the country's future, which leaves him with no hope of a better tomorrow.

Nigerian man returns to ghetto in video after making it, plays with friends who helped him in the past
Daniel Dagodzo DagDan indicated:
It’s always beautiful to stay legally in a country that helped you (by way of scholarship) and contribute to its development. You are only obliged to go back when your scholarship is from the Ghana government (have no idea how they get it though) If not, please feel free to make your choice. Anyway, a visit to GH isn’t bad at all.
