Want to leave Ghana? Are you thinking of relocating back to Ghana? This could help you decide.🤔💭

In this premier episode of chit chat with Obolodiaries, we talk about Ghana and whether or now we should stay and fight for our nation or JAPA! Lol.

Our friends on the show today share their experiences of moving back to Ghana, their struggles even when they got the chance to leave and why they came back. We share insights on the theory of the grass being greener on the other side. Maybe we should stay and water our grass well anaaa? 😂

Good conversations guys. Everything that was said about the stay in abroad is definitely true. But one thing I will like to add to it is that, as Africans staying abroad you must want more for yourself. If the 2k is not enough to take care of bills and the family you should not be comfortable with it and be living hand to mouth. You should want more by continuously furthering your education and pushing for a better job/salary to meet those needs. That’s the lifestyle abroad if not you will sit and complain and keep collecting 2k. It’s not easy in Ghana as well let’s get that!! The basic amenities you get abroad, in Ghana they are not easy to come by example good schools for our children, access to good health care, electricity and water. You will have to pay more in Ghana for these. Have a lot to say but will just stop here for now. Great stuff OB nation and I loved the convos. Will surely stay tuned for more. 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@obolodiaries]

Love this input!! Thank you so much for adding to the discussion. Appreciate it. Some very valid points you’ve made too. Hmmm. Ay3ka!😂.

[@taytayshaniqua.8686]

i think we should lower our expectations and focus on bettering ourselves.

[@enochmillsjr4856]

UK too be very legalistic. The least thing norr letter drop. And Mimi is right about the neighborhood thing. You even pay twice of the fees if you taking your child to a school away from their neighborhood

[@obolodiaries]

Hmmm chale!

[@akufforowlanda2336]

OMG, I really loved the conversation. With regards to parents still making ends meet, I think they had a hustle kinda of mentality and here to make money and come back to Gh at a later time so certain sacrifices are made eg vacation etc so they they can still get what they want.

[@obolodiaries]

I feel you. Senior magicians 😂.

[@christabelosei-du7474]

This generation is not as resilient as the older generation in enduring the hardships corrupt politicians want is to endure. Our resilience is strong in pushing back and rightfully so. We will not take it. I hope we all fight together to make the country better for us and our future generation bc these old men are almost gone!

[@obolodiaries]

Hmmmm that’s a thing too! Ollldddd men making decisions for us only to leave us to suffer the consequences! Crazy times. Thank you for your input 🧡

[@phoebenkansa8099]

[@adelaideasiamah852]

Loved every bit of this Nowhere cool though One thing about staying abroad (I’m in Texas) is the stigma of being a black It ain’t easy till you develop a tough skin for it Too many stories to tell but for another day God bless this channel

[@obolodiaries]

Thank you so much! I guess racism is a whole other issue on its own! Crazy! We would love to hear your stories and suggestions on the subsequent parts too! Bless 🙏🏿✌🏿

[@oliviaayim777]

I really liked this, I can't believe I watched it to the end. The last question u asked Mimi was so important. How is every young person complaining now but the parents are surviving under the same conditions? i really want to hear more

[@obolodiaries]

Awww thank you! For watching till the end. That’s a million dollar question! Stay stewnnddd for more 😂🧡

[@franciscaak]

Most people abroad would really like to relocate to the motherland. However, the cons of living in Ghana outweighs the pros (at least for me) and this is what is stopping a lot of us. I came to Ghana (my very first time after 18 years abroad) for a month and I was ready to go back after just two weeks. The system is very slow and it complicates things unnecessarily. There is nothing like living in the motherland but our leaders need to do better.

[@obolodiaries]

Omg thissss! Exactly how most of us feel!😩. Hmmmmm.

[@franciscaak]

@@obolodiaries to be honest kudos to Ghanaians living in Ghana because Eiiiiiiii! The system is a not not not. I really don't know how you people survive.

[@obolodiaries]

@@franciscaak loool Insha Allah and vibes.

[@priscillaq8327]

I can relate to Emeka but charle lass lass you have to find a way to thrive. I don't think social media has made our lives harder, I think it has just exposed somethings and made us value what quality of life could potentially look like. Some of our parent did not have the best quality of life but they did not know life outside of what all the people who japka in their time knew so they had such a hustle mentality. Drops mic 🎤

[@obolodiaries]

Loool please pick mic up and hold it for part 2. Your points are interesting and we would love to hear more! Thank you!🧡

[@franciscaak]

Hmmm whatever the Lady from the UK said is the absolute truth. The UK sucks all of your income through taxes. By the time all the taxes have been taken out of your salary, you are left with pennies. We are really suffering 😭

[@obolodiaries]

😭😭😭. Someone will ask, then why don’t you come back home?😭😭😂. Anaaa?👀

[@franciscaak]

@@obolodiaries how can we come back home when the system is not working in Ghana? From frying pan to hell fire😭😭

[@lindatandoh929]
