Isaac – From driver to brother to business associate

Meet Isaac, a taxi driver in Accra, Ghana.  I met him my first night in Ghana and we became brothers instantly.  

For 3 weeks, Isaac was vital to many aspects of my trip.  He not only drove me around Accra, but he helped tremendously with the following:

  • Coordinated another driver and larger car for a trip to Akim Oda.
  • Drove us rountrip from Accra to Kumasi for an overnight trip and tour of the king’s palace.
  • Provided a local perspective on Ghana’s business and political landscape (especially given the upcoming presidential election in Dec 2024).
  • Found contacts in the Registrar General Dept (RGD) to facilitate reserving my business name.  
  • Looking for commercial/warehouse space for my water production venture.
  • Helping with basysitter transport.
