In similar news, BI Phakathi met a poor man and gave him money to buy something to eat and revealed that he thought he would never come back with the Ghc8. However, the honest guy managed to come back with the food and change.
He said his name is Jacques and stays in the streets but he gets help from generous people. He continued to say sometimes he pays Ghc10 for a place to stay and that’s why he’s hustling on the streets.
Jacques told BI Phakathi that he was once stabbed for a mere Ghc3 and decided to be an honest man ever since. BI later gave him Ghc269 to buy food because he was faithful.
