About this listen

Sam Jonah and the remaking of Ashanti recounts the inspirational life of one of Africa's most prominent Black businessmen. From working underground as a shovel boy to his appointment as the CEO of the trailblazing African gold mining company, Ashanti Goldfields Corporation, Sam Jonah's determination to surmount every obstacle in a career strewn with hurdles makes for compelling listening.

Frenzied deals, boardroom cliff-hangers, political scandal, and private battles punctuate this unique account of the challenges of conducting "first world" business in the "third world". Through Jonah's corporate leadership we explore the paradox that a continent so richly endowed with gold and other minerals should find itself in such dire poverty. It is a hopeful story about breaking the confines of one's circumstances, not just for Africans but for individuals the world over.
