The emotional video of the young man's hustle had raked in over 500 likes and 17 comments at the time of writing the report.

He added that his ambition for interviewing hawkers most often was premised on his desire to shed light on the plight and hustle of Ghanaians.

I believe that storytelling has the power to create positive change and ignite conversations about social issues".
