In a world where flashy cars and lavish lifestyles are often seen as the ultimate symbols of success, Ghanaian businessman and philanthropist Seidu Agongo is taking a different path—one paved with purpose, compassion, and a deep commitment to uplifting others.

Speaking on the Master of the Game show on CTV, hosted by Kwasi Kyei Darkwah, Mr. Agongo offered a reflection on what truly matters in life.

“At the end of the day, do you remember Kwame Nkrumah’s cars that he drove? Do you even remember Jerry John Rawlings’ cars? Do you remember His Excellency John Dramani Mahama’s cars that he used in his first term?” he asked rhetorically. “Nobody cares, so why do you place so much emphasis on it?”

For Mr. Agongo, real legacy lies not in material possessions, but in the lives one touches.

“I use my money to take care of poor people. I don’t use my money for fun. There’s more in helping people than blowing money on myself because I’m fine and very content,” he said.

Known for his long-standing philanthropic work, Mr Agongo shared stories of how helping vulnerable children and orphans has brought him more satisfaction than any luxury item ever could.

He recounted paying school fees for countless underprivileged children, many of whom have now grown into responsible adults with families of their own. “That’s the most important thing,” he emphasised.

Should something happen to you now and you have a daughter or son, I see it as an obligation, a responsibility to use my money to help that child grow to become who you want the kid to become,” he explained. “That is where I get my joy, and that is what makes me happy—not women, not cars.”

At a time when society often chases after status and appearances, Seidu Agongo stands as a reminder that the greatest investment anyone can make is in people. Because long after the engines of expensive cars stop running, the impact we make on human lives continues to echo across generations.
