Mama, I'm sorry, it's time to go - Damongo teacher shares last video as he prepares for asamando after losing GHC 400,000 to Fòrex trading
A teacher from Damongo in the Savannah Region has shared a detailed account of how a series of poor financial decisions—particularly in fòrex trading—led to the collapse of his business and personal finances.
Once known for running a successful electrical shop and supporting underprivileged students in his community, he gradually lost everything after consistently reinvesting in fòrex in an attempt to recover previous losses.
He sold his inventory, land, personal belongings, and eventually his own room, hoping to turn things around.
According to him, he has lost more than GH₵400,000 and is now battling the emotional and psychological consequences of those losses.
He stated that while he is not sharing his experience to gain sympathy, he hopes it serves as a cautionary tale for others considering similar financial rìsks.
He also apologised to his mother, admitting he messed up and doesn't deserve to live.
Ultimately, he has decided to visit asamando and be free from the psychological consequences.
