A frustration with repeated wheel clamping led him into the scrap metal business, which inspired him to drop out and focus on entrepreneurship. He later founded GTU, an internet billing company, which he sold for £410,000 before returning to Ghana in 2001. There, he started Wonda World Entertainment (artist management) and owned the nightclub Temptations. He then shifted into real estate, founding Wonda World Estates, developing modern, uniquely designed residential and commercial properties in Accra, including Avenue Lincoln. His flagship development is Petronia City in Western Ghana, a modern integrated city with residential, commercial, and industrial zones aimed at boosting economic growth and employment.
