According to the talented boy in an interview with Ghanaweb on BizTech, he always dreamt of building a vehicle, and through determination, he finally made it a reality.
Despite his little resources, Danso’s resilience led him to buy scrap parts of a discarded three-wheeled vehicle, known in Ghanaian parlance as ‘Aboboyaa’, to finish his work.
The Auto Mechanic student said he taught himself how to build cars, deriving inspiration and knowledge from how three-wheeled cars work.
After building his first car, Danso said he wants to become a professional to train others in the skill, especially young people.
