Stories of friends who succeed together are always very powerful because they show that there is indeed power in mutual relationships.
Three pals who were ordinary workers in South Africa more than a decade ago have greatly succeeded.
According to one of them, Tinashe Nyamudoka, they were employed to wash dishes, and polish cutlery and wine glasses.
The men continued in the hospitality industry and this time around, they are big players. In a post on Monday, May 24, Tinashe revealed that they are opening a restaurant and wine bar in Victoria Island.

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that the change of social status of two Nigerian friends got many people talking on social media. In 2018, the young men posed in front of sacks of beans.
Years after, a 2021 photo has both of them looking lively and finer in London. Nigerians said theirs is a perfect example that anybody's story can change at any time.
