11-year-old boy shares struggles
Earlier, Angle, the 11-year-old boy who has been the sole caretaker of his mother, suffering from a stroke, shared his story with @KobbyKyei_ on X.
He explained that he hustles daily because his mother can no longer provide for them.
The young boy shared that a kind woman, Osofo Maame from the Methodist Church in their community of Adumasa in the Ashanti Region, brings them food every evening.
His mother, Auntie Agyeiwaa, expressed deep gratitude for her support, which has sustained them through some of their hardest days.

Despite the evening meals, Angle explained that mornings and afternoons often go without food, pushing him to join a local galamsey site after school to earn a little for their family.
“I could not watch her stay without food, so after school I go to work at the galamsey site,” he said, adding that he sometimes earns about GHC70 per day.
The story of the young boy and his mother’s resilience has moved many Ghanaians, highlighting the strength and determination of a child forced to grow up too quickly.
