With this, he posted a photo of himself holding a sack of charcoal, standing in what appeared to be a rural part of Ghana.
The photo showed him wearing a stern look, giving the impression that he was struggling financially and had yet to achieve his desired ambitions.
The post then transitioned to the next slide, showing a recent photo of his massive transformation.
Apparently, he relocated to the US to pursue postgraduate studies and posted a photo from his graduation.
Unlike in the previous photo, where Eben seemed unhappy, the young man this time wore a bright smile in his beautiful gown, looking into the camera after he received his certificate.
The adorable posts, which highlight the massive transformation of the young man, emphasise the strides he has made since relocating to the US.

The young man has subsequently posted other videos on his TikTok page detailing his journey and life after moving to the US.
