In a short interview, the lady by name Deborah Laryea decided to start making hair from house-to-house for ladies.

Deborah graduated in 2023 and completed her national service in with Ghana Manganese Company Ltd as a Health Safety and Environment officer where her performance was also excellent.

Sadly, she was not recruited after the national service and has been job hunting since then. In her own words: “I am still searching for a mainstream job but I have taken to going to people’s houses and shops to braid for them. I never learnt to braid. It came to me naturally”.

It is rather admirable that unlike many young graduates who would simply sit home when they are unable to get a job, Deborah decided to put her hands to use and is making something for herself at least.

In another interesting report about a young graduate who started a different business. Doris Obenewaa Darko, a Ghanaian food vendor, holds two degrees in Mathematics & Actuarial Science after painfully fending for herself since she finished high school.

Narrating her story in an interview, Doris indicated that she holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics after which she went ahead to study for an MSc in Actuarial Science, both at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

Doris grew up in Koforidua-Kukurantumi and had her primary education in Rose’s School Complex after which she attended Akim Commercial College JHS, all of which are in New Tafo Akim.
