. The drama will tell the story of Kojo and Yoofi, two brothers who grow up on the electronic waste dump in Ghana’s capital of Accra and earn their living by extracting marketable metals from discarded Western electronic devices. When Kojo meets a Borga, a rich Ghanian from abroad, he starts wishing he could leave the country. Ten years later, he pursues his dream, and after travelling for another four years, he reaches Germany.
