There are many ‘rags to riches’ stories that uplifts the self-confidence and conviction of people but the story of Rev. Dr. Abbeam Ampomah Danso is overly compelling and has the potential of altering or reinforcing anybody’s conception of hope, perseverance, determination, fate and the grace of God.

Rev. Dr. Abbeam projects a movie-like script of a kid who surmounted a torrid childhood and rose to become one of the most-accomplished business magnates ever to emerge from Ghana, West Africa.

Interestingly, his heart-wrenching upbringing and his burst-out as a man of many successes is yet to be told and appreciated by his own countrymen.

Difficult Childhood

From the remote town of Kumawu in the Ashanti Region, Rev. Dr. Abbeam lost his father at an early age and had to endure a childhood fraught with hardship. In his bid to survive, he roamed and slept on the dangerous streets of Accra, from Kaneshie to Sowutuom – doing all manners of tedious jobs.

It was after these things that life became extremely harsh and reached the point of being completely unbearable; he had suicidal thoughts, climbed the popular Kaneshie Bridge and decided to end it all. A sound admonition of his mother about people who take their lives going to hell, came rushing into his head and that alone saved him.

The Breakthrough

In the midst of his many challenges, Rev. Dr. Abbeam held onto his faith, stayed humble, resolute and had a special gift from God. Almost akin to the story of Joseph in the Bible, he also had the spirit of prophecy and that gift is what God used to open humongous doors for him.

By Godly intervention, while battling through difficulties of life, he encountered a woman and by the direction of God, the young Abbeam prophesied to the life of this woman.

That prophecy came to pass and the woman took him in and that – commenced the journey of a street kid who took his opportunities with such poise and gusto, making him one of the most powerful and influential business men to emerge from Africa.

One Man – Many Ventures

He has founded, developed and sustained a deluge of businesses across industries and sectors in Ghana and the United Kingdom. His impressive business portfolio includes ventures in Real Estates, Academia, Health Care, Media & Entertainment, Philanthropy and Outreach Programs.

He is highly experienced in varied industries such as Construction and Agriculture.

Over the years, he’s been able to cement a strong and very effective network spanning the highest level influencers and decision makers to the grass-roots due to his stellar achievements and many booming business endeavors.

He has also built strategic relationships across political and business arenas, both home and abroad.

As an astute entrepreneur with a passion to bring real change through community and human development, he’s earned accolades on both community and national levels, which has led to him being honoured as the development chief in his native town.

All such ventures and many others are being managed judiciously under the Abbeam Group of Companies.school
