Hardworking Samuel Kwaku Sakyi, a tricycle rider, spent all his money on Ama, hoping to marry her.

This affected his sales to his master, but Samuel insists he had already fulfilled his part of the ‘Work and Pay’ agreement with his tricycle owner, but his boss will have non of that, so got him arrested.

The court asked Samuel to pay one thousand eight hundred cedis to his boss or in default go to prison for 18 months, but he could not raise the amount. Ama had then left him.

With tears, Samuel had to go to jail. After spending two months at the Koforidua Local Prison, philanthropist, Ali Ibrahim has paid the court fine for him to start life all over again.

May Allah continue to bless our dear brother Ali Ibrahim.

So the question is, couldn’t have Samuel contributed to society better if Ghana had a law on Community Service?
When other countries are using prisoners for socio-economic development, we continue to warehouse our own. So sad!
