Ghanaian TikToker's Risky Investment Advice Sparks Debate
Ghanaian TikToker Promotes Risky Financial Advice: A Closer Look Accra, Ghana – A recent TikTok video by VERIFIED VOiCE, a Ghanaian digital creator, has sparked discussion about the ethical implications of promoting potentially risky financial advice. The video, which has accumulated 155 views since its upload on May 31st, 2025, advocates for borrowing money to invest, a strategy that carries significant risk without proper financial planning and understanding. The video blends personal stories with religious undertones, suggesting that borrowing to invest is a divinely ordained path to financial success. One of the speakers states, "It's necessary to borrow to sow a seed." While the sentiment might resonate with some viewers, financial experts caution against such generalizations. The video's heavy promotional nature, with a clear call to action to contact the creator for further assistance, raises concerns about potential exploitation. The video's popularity, despite its questionable advice, highlights the need for increased financial literacy and critical thinking among social media users in Ghana. The video serves as a reminder of the importance of verifying information found online before making financial decisions.
