Cursory: Meet a Ghanaian man called Mr. Samuel Hodor Mensah who built a resort in the Eastern Region of Ghana that is dedicated to producing several products from coconut. In an interview, Mr. Mensah talked about how he abandoned his profession as an optometrist to become a full-time coconut farmer. Several netizens were dumbfounded by the man’s inspiring story and took to the comments to share their thoughts.


Mr Samuel Hodor Mensah abandoned his enviable profession as an optometrist to pursue his life ambition of becoming a coconut farmer. He set up a resort in Asamankese, Eastern Region, called Sahmen Coconut Resort, which is dedicated to producing various products from coconut.
In an interview with The Ghanaian Farmer on YouTube, Mr Mensah revealed that his establishment makes various products from coconuts, such as coconut fruits, biscuits, coconut oil, chips, coco ginger, coconut tom brown and coconut bread, among others. He stressed that all the products produced are organic and very healthy.
Mr Mensah revealed to his interviewer that in 2020, he made about 361,228,170 million naira in profit from the coconut business, much more than he could make from his profession as an optometrist.
His story attracted a lot of comments, below are a few:
Alex Markson: Very impressive and inspiring, how do l pls get contact with Owura Sammy it’s very necessary for at least a bit advice, thanks
Gideon lord – Adem: Very very inspiring. Waoooo.

Afrika Is Life: The biggest complaint all employers make are bad roads and unenthusiastic youth who complain that there is no job but they’re unwilling to work. They youth want to run off to Europe or America, to do what? We need farmers, plumbers, construction workers, electricians, car mechanics.
Temi Fash: This is no doubt a great content, very enlightening, and inspiring. Many thanks to the interviewer for bringing us this, and to Mr Sahmen for opening our eyes to yet another opportunity that lies in Agriculture. That said, it’s my first time watching your content, and you’ve just earned a new subscriber.
Yommy Steven commented: A very impressive and inspiring farmer. I’m happy to hear about the partnership between him and his Nigerian customers. That’s the way Africa as a continent should go and make progress.
Augustine Wiafe said: Those who really want to work will always have something to do. The youth must learn to be creative and to be entrepreneurs.
Patricia Johnson remarked: Thank you for sharing this story. I look forward to visiting one day. I learned a lot about coconuts from this interview. All the best to the owners of this awesome business.
JC said: Wow! Dr Hador is a millionaire. He should scale up and expand his coconut farm to produce more coconut cooking oil. There is a shortage and huge demand for cooking oil
