Call them the scrap-busters or merely ‘korliba’, as they are commonly referred to, but their work, albeit tough and sometimes too intruding, offers many people the opportunity to trade their faulty equipment for some cash. In some cases, these items are just given out to them for free, “after all, it is faulty,” they would retort. GhanaWeb TV’s Etsey Atisu caught up with Abubakar, a pretty successful ‘korliba’ who trades from his large scrap workshop from Klo-Agogo in the Yilo Krobo constituency of the Eastern region. If they are light, you make little from them but heavy machines like engines and other heavy equipment, you make good cash from it. He explained that many of his clients are located at Tema and that motivates him to do even meeting their demands.
