However, after completing his national service, he could not find a job and decided to fend for himself.
In a Facebook post by Nana Tea, Jonathan started selling porridge, popularly referred to as koko, and other breakfast foods.
The business is doing well - Jonathan has opened 12 other branches and employed some young people reducing the unemployment rate in the country.
