Biography: His father was from Salaga and his mother’s family from Kumasi. When he finished Junior Secondary School, he started selling bicycles but could only afford one at first. Most of his friends sold them, and now he can help his poor family. Human behavior makes people do wrong, but not Islamic teaching.
