Formerly a minibus conductor, better known as trotro mate, Mabel Alukbadek, has landed a job as an IT End User Support Officer at the head office of Fidelity Bank.
Three years ago, the young determined woman moved from Sandema in the Upper East Region to Kumasi and later to Accra to seek greener pastures and further her education.
Alukbadek had always wanted to become a military officer but had to study Systems Engineering to enable her to pursue that dream.

Despite the financial constraints, she completed the programme at Intercom Programming and Manufacturing Co (IPMC) with the help of some Good Samaritans.
Eventually, she had the opportunity to work with certain institutions but lost her job almost a year now due to the pandemic.
In an interview with Kofi Adoma on Kofi TV recently, Alukbadek disclosed that she met a man who works as a Fiber Optic Technician.
''He asked me to perform a task in the same field though that was not the programme I studied at IMPC," she said.
Impressed by her performance after witnessing her perform the task, the man linked her to her new employers at Fidelity Bank.
In March 2021, Alukbadek finally gained employment as an IT End User Support Officer at the bank.
