A Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) Chemical Engineering student who received support to finance his education has obtained 7As in his second-semester examination.

The young man, whose name was not disclosed, had to work as a trotro mate (mini-bus conductor) to fend for himself before enrolling at the university. His dream of furthering his education hunged in the balance despite earning stellar results in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

The young man secured admission at KNUST but needed support to fund his education. He paid his fees thanks to Ghanaian social media personality, philanthropist Wendy Boatemaa Ofori, and another benefactor.
