Davud Akhundzada, an Azerbaijani content creator, travelled to Ghana and gifted a Ghanaian barber some money to upgrade the space he uses for his job.

The tourist went to a roadside barber located close to Tema Station in Accra, Greater Accra and asked that they give him a haircut.

He sat down on a bench to wait for his turn. While the tourist was in the barber's seat, two men who were there to also have a haircut were chatting.

The barber shaved Davud Akhundzada's hair for him using a blade. When he was done, he charged the tourist GH¢15.

Davud Akhundzada paid and added more money for the barber. When they counted the money, they realised Davud Akhundzada had given the barber GH¢1200.

The Azerbaijani tourist said the barber should use the money to upgrade his barbering space.

The barbering space was an open one under a tree with no mirror for customers to see their faces. The chair was a wooden one, and everything he used for the haircut was in a small bag hung on a tree. He did not seem to have any electronic haircut equipment.

The barber expressed his gratitude to the tourist. He immediately gave some of the money to another man who was seated close to him.
