About Me
My name is Eric Sackey, I am 28 years of age and I come from Nkonya in the Volta region of Ghana.
Growing up with my parents and my siblings in our home town Nkonya.
Growing was mixed with sad and happiness, in that there was a land conflict between the people of Alavayo and my home town people. I have to leave my home town to stay with my uncle at Accra.
In Accra I attended St Anthony's Preparatory School, at school I was not good academically but at home I was very helpful when it comes to cooking and helping my uncle's wife.
When I completed St Anthony's Preparatory School, I came back to my parents where I attended Alavayo Vocational Institute. I studied catering as a course and successfully pass with certificate in catering.
After my completion I was supported by my uncle with little money, so I started my own food retail business which am currently doing.
The unique of the people around my community is that they are very friendly and love visitor.
Presently I don not have a child of my own.
I love to play video games, especially XBOX . Lately I have also discovered an interesting hobby, that is basket ball. I am learning the game and less time will try my hands on it.
