KEN AGYAPONG JR: I Was a Security Man in My Dad’s Company When I Moved to Ghana 🇬🇭

Ken Agyapong Jnr is the son of Hon. Kennedy Agyapong; Ken is also the Co-founder of Afrofuture. Ken works at his father’s Kencity Media Company Limited and he holds an envious position in the media establishment.
He schooled in America before coming down to take over part of his father’s businesses.
Kenneth in a conversation with Derrick on Konnected Minds Podcast has disclosed how even though people will think he has it easy because of the caliber of his dad, it is rather the opposite and also his transition to Ghana after running multiple businesses in the US.

[@kwameowusudwomoh7770]

When it comes to Black businesses or let me limit it to Ghana with regards to your question about “businesses not living past the first generation”, Ken jnr’s answer is just an icing on the cake but the reality has to do with our system or culture of inheritance amongst us because if the founder of the business dies most especially “men” the businesses collapse because of who with take over the enterprise. If he had multiple wives then wahala amongst the wives and their respective kids and even if he married one wives the bone of contention then may come amongst the children if he had multiple kids, or between wife and kids against the man’s external family. So in most cases they either sell the enterprise to share the proceeds or totally run it down

His dad wants to be president to help many more youth become millionaires so he needed to show up for his party as he needs the party to become flag bearer. Everything is about perspective depending on how you look at the glass it could be half empty or half full.
