A young graduate from the University of Ghana, known as Kojo Forex, has inspired thousands of Ghanaians with screenshots of a chat he had with famous blogger, Ameyaw Debrah, seven years ago.
In the screenshots shared from his little chat in 2014, Kojo was persistently asking the blogger for an opportunity to write for his startup but Ameyaw had to turn down the request mainly because Kojo was still a student at the time.
Currently, the gentleman has become so successful that he owns two luxury cars, his own house, and what he describes as a healthy bank account.
The gentleman who is only in his 20s is known to have at least one mansion, a customized Mercedes Benz car, and runs his own ventures, chiefly Forex trading, that generates money for him.

"You can’t have same license numbers for 2 vehicles. Something is not quite true from the pictures."
@kwakutraderKT replied him saying:
"It’s not a license plate. He just covered the number with his name. It’s edited just to block the number.. He own the cars I know him."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a young Nigerian lady, Favour Onaruyi-Obasuyi, took her unemployment frustration to LinkedIn as she spoke about her several failed attempts at getting a job.
In a long post, the lady revealed that she has been jobless since November 2020. Between that year and now, she applied for more than 1,000 job opportunities as they all hit a rock.
For the few that she was able to get an interview, their salaries according to her were very low. Favour said even people stopped accepting her LinkedIn connection requests, a situation she reasoned could have been caused by her job-seeking situation.
