''I moved to the UK in 2000; I had money in Ghana, and my intention was to convert the money - work, and use the money to buy more shoes and return to Ghana. But when I came and met my friend, he suggested that we join forces.
''He also mentioned that he was trying to bring his wife to the UK with the help of a connection man. So, I asked him to help bring my wife to the UK to work with her,'' he told DJ Nyaami.
Properties acquired from selling shoes
The London-based man revealed that he has acquired properties from his second-hand shoe business in Accra and Kumasi.
''I have built a house. I have two plots of land, and I've built a house on one. I also have a house in Kumasi and I'm building a hotel there,'' he said.
Amang, who has a child in Ghana, revealed that he wants to put his child in charge of the hotel.
