Mother of a food vendor, Madam Akua Asare has warned young ladies to stay away if they cannot marry a fried yam seller because that is what her son wants to do.
Speaking on SVTV Africa with DJ Nyaami, Madam Asare indicated that initially they planned for their son to further his education but he refused. All he wanted to do was take over his mom’s business and make it better.
Hence “if you cannot marry a fried yam seller, then you will go. Because this is all that he wants to do. Don’t look at the fact that he does not wear a suit and tie. He even makes more money than those at the office.”
“He told us that there are many graduates without jobs so he does not want to be like them. It’s been good. Some of his graduate friends come here to borrow money from him. Gradually, he’s been able to get his first car from this,” Madam Akua added.
Dominic Oduro is the owner of One Styk Fries located at Bawaleshie, East Legon. He is the second of six children. He is the sole provider and takes care of his younger siblings. Still, in his early 20s, he hopes to open another branch in two years.
He serves fried yam with gizzard, redfish, octopus, and others.
