Blind dry cleaner of 20 years says people take advantage of his visual challenge
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported about a blind man who has been dry cleaning clothes for years.
In an interview with BBC News Pidgin, Akpan lamented that people dupe him due to his blindness.
He stated that new customers usually doubt his ability but get convinced after seeing their clothes washed, ironed and packaged as agreed.
Akpan said that he lost his sight in 2005 and has visited physicians to no success. The man who has been in the dry cleaning business for the past 20 years said some physicians say his sight problem is spiritual.
