Kwame was about 3 years old when his father passed away. His mother decided to leave the North for Accra, in the hope of a better chance to provide for Kwame and his four siblings. Sadly, life became more difficult in Accra since they had no family or friends, and his mother took to selling oranges to support the family. Kwame, his mom, and his siblings currently sleep in a church at the Kokomba market. His mother tidies up the place for church services and is given a small monthly sum of appreciation in return. She uses that money to buy the oranges she sells and although she’s a hard worker and really does her best to take care of her family, feeding herself and her children is a daily struggle. Kwame doesn’t attend school regularly because his mother just cannot keep up with paying his fees.
