A young man from Benin has been left stranded in Ghana after allegedly being duped by some unknown and unscrupulous persons.

In a video posted on X and viewed by GhanaWeb, a young man who appeared distraught and confused was found sitting on a pavement in an undisclosed location, holding a brown envelope.

The contents of the envelope showed white sheets with no inscriptions, as well as a small sheet of paper with some writing on it, which had been handed to him by the individuals who duped him.

A Ghanaian who encountered the stranded Beninese man said he was a motor rider locally known as Okada.
