He was photographed standing in the sun holding his placard, by an onlooker who later shared the photo on social media. The photo went viral with mixed comments praising him for his creativity, as well as mocking him.
In an interview with Serwaa Amihere on GHOne TV, Isaac provided more information regarding his stunt and what the outcome has been so far.
According to him, he nearly gave up at a point in time because a lot of people were laughing at him but he was inspired to keep standing there by a few people who encouraged him with positive words.
“It was very difficult initially. People kept laughing at me that I decided to move to a different location. When I got there, I was inspired to stay because other people kept telling me I’ll find a job. In total, I spent about an hour and 30 minutes in the sun. But now, more than 50 companies have offered to employ me,” he recalled.
