In other news, Ghanaian female barber Grace Minnet, a former student of Benkum Senior High School, has made inroads in a career stereotypically seen as a male dominated field.

Professionally known as Minnet the Barber, the adventurous lady has defeated the odds and is excelling as a barber, despite the impediments women in the field face.

The 25-year-old's career trajectory began after she completed senior high school in 2010.
