The award-winning Ghanaian journalist, Nana Aba Anamoah, has secured a job for a once scruffy hawker named Kessben to work as a shop manager.

The generous gesture comes not long after the acting general manager of GHOne TV obtained a job for Kessben’s colleague, Ebetoda, at Agoo TV to follow in her footsteps as a TV presenter.

Nana Aba Anamoah obtained the job for Ebetoda six weeks after encountering the then-struggling hawker on the streets in Accra.

Ebetoda's impressive makeover for his new day job as a presenter went viral in a video and caught the attention of admirers.
