COME, I’LL SHOW YOU

PRECARIOUS WORKING CONDITIONS

Isaac Poku is a cheerful and dedicated family man who tries to help everyone. His most important goal is the well-being of his wife and son. He’s about to buy the taxi he drives for someone else to  finally become his own boss. Isaac just has to find the last installment very quickly.
&nbsp
At the same time, his wife needs household money and his son Junior has to pay the fees for a scholarship examination. So Isaac works extra hours. He hardly sleeps. Unfocused as he is, he misjudges alleged passengers. They lure him into a trap and steal the taxi. Now Isaac is left with nothing. But his kindness pays off and he gets help from an unexpected source.

COME, I’LL SHOW YOU THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN

GHANA

Ghana (officially the Republic of Ghana), with its approximately 29 million inhabitants, gained independence from Great Britain in 1957. Ghana borders Ivory Coast in the west, Togo in the east, and shares an inland border with Burkina Faso in the north. The capital city of Accra lies in the south along the Atlantic coast and is home to more than two million people. The official language is English, but another 70 languages are spoken throughout the country.
>/br>
Much has been done for education in Ghana, where basic schooling is compulsory. In 2019, the literacy rate was 79%, but poverty continues to impact education and health, especially in rural regions.
>/br>
Ghana has a diverse media landscape, and criticism of the government is possible. Ghana ranked 30th out of 180 countries on the 2020 World Press Freedom Index, published by Reporters without Borders.
