On May 29, 2025, Ghanaian blogger and humanitarian Kobby Kyei shared the emotional story of Solomon Akugru, a survivor of the tragic June 3 Kwame Nkrumah Circle disaster.
A decade has passed since that tragic event, but for Solomon, the trauma is still alive, not just in memory, but in the visible scars on his face and the quiet pain of abandoned dreams.
The post was a raw and powerful reminder of the many silent lives still living with the aftermath of that terrible day.

On June 3, 2025, exactly 10 years since the disaster, Solomon Akugru was invited by the CEO of the National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP), Mr. Eric Adjei, accompanied by Kobby Kyei.
There, he made a personal donation to Solomon to help him begin a new chapter in life and acquire a decent accommodation and source of livelihood.

He presented startup tools to help Solomon learn a skill in tiling, funding for rent, giving him a safe and dignified home and a mobile phone, ensuring he stays connected as he begins his new journey
Through this act, he has not only given Solomon the tools to build a new life, but has reminded us all what true leadership looks like: leadership that sees, that feels and that lifts.

To Solomon, your courage is unmatched, and your resilience is a lesson to us all.
To Kobby Kyei, thank you for using your platform to amplify the unheard.
May this story serve as a call to us all; to notice, to care, and to act.
