Ibrahim Mahama, a 35-year-old Ghanaian artist who lives in Tamale has narrated how he was able to set up an expensive arts centre in the Northern Region through his art.
Narrating his story in an interview on the YouTube channel, Exposed By Bebs, Ibrahim said he has been able to sell an artwork for $ 1,000,000 and others at lower but expensive prices.
Ibrahim who interestingly shares the same name with Former President John Mahama’s brother was able to acquire six different aircrafts ranging between $10,000 to $20,000 each for his art centre.
According to the 35-year-old, he hopes to inspire hope and life in the Northern part of Ghana where he has already acquired 100 acres of land for different big-time projects.
The six aircrafts at Ibrahim’s art centre used to be mobile but had been reportedly kept at the Kotoka International Airport for so long that they started getting rusty.
Now, the young man allows school children and other locals to explore them at no cost, hoping it will make them dream big.
Ibrahim Mahama was born in Tamale but raised in Accra.
He attended Pope John’s Secondary School in Koforidua after which he went to KNUST in 2006 to study Painting and Sculpture, followed by his master’s degree and PhD.
Meanwhile, CEO of Engineers & Planners Michael, Ibrahim Mahama, earlier shared the story of how he moved from a place of ‘nothing’ to become the big businessman he is today.
According to Ibrahim Mahama (brother of John Mahama), it was only through God’s intervention and destiny that he met a man he called Uncle Seth who helped him to start his business.
The businessman made the revelation while giving a testimony in church recently. He was at the Grace Chapel for the launch of a book called Destiny.
