I became a security man in London – T-Blaze

One of Ghana’s most popular hiplife musician back in the days, Richmond Opoku Ampratwum, known in showbiz circles as T- Blaze has recounted in an interview how he decided to be a security man when he was in London as a student because it was not optional.

T-Blaze revealed in the interview monitored by zionfelix.net on Accra FM’s ‘Entertainment Capital’ show with Bismarck Boachie (Dj Premier) that because the times were quite difficult for him as a student, he had to find something to do in terms of work to survive and as such, he decided to be a security man to make a little change for ends meat.

He stressed that even though he was known as a security man, the work he did was not too herculean like a typical Ghanaian security man will do. The ‘Wosisi Ye Wo Ya’ hitmaker also stated that all he had to do was to monitor a CCTV and click on it when the need arose.

“…In London, nobody will have to tell you to work, you will do so yourself. As such, after school each day, I also worked as a security man…” T-Blaze told DJ Premier.

T-Blaze further mentioned that at the time he realized that the money he was getting from the work as a security man was not enough, he decided to divert to become a post person. He added that even though the financial benefit with this new work was not bad, he had to also quite because people he delivered letters to tried to mock him.
