At 20, he completed senior high school before heading to the University of Education, Winneba, where he obtained a first-class degree in Bsc Management Education at age 24.
New challenge
Despite the progress, he had other hurdles to overcome, including secure employment to start life. Appiah told a trusted Ghanaian news media Yen.gh that he had not secured a job after graduating in 2019.
''I have been jobless since 2019. I have made several attempts, but none yielded a positive result.
The 33-year-old graduate had to resort to selling secondhand clothes to make ends meet.
''I go for used clothes from a supplier and, after selling, I keep the profit and send bulk money to my supplier,'' he said.
Appiah bemoaned the painstaking struggle with trekking for days to earn a weekly profit of GH200 (N13k) or less. He appealed for help from kind-hearted individuals to assist him with securing a job.
''The profit margin is low, and you end up using what you made to treat yourself; I fall sick from walking days under the scorching sun.
''It's not easy. I need a job to earn income to invest in the business,'' Appiah said.
