From Cameroon to South Africa: From Refugee to Successful Businessman

Robertson Tengeh

Chapter 16 in Refugee Entrepreneurship, 2019, pp 231-240 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Like any ambitious young man, Oliver dreamt of becoming successful. When it became apparent that the conditions in Cameroon would not allow him to realize his dreams, Oliver did what most Africans do today. He immigrated to South Africa, where he had to overcome a different set of challenges to achieve his goal. With a lot of hard work and the support of his family and ethnic network, today, Oliver is an affluent entrepreneur in his own right.
