  "account": "Musician Barosky, whose real name is Isaac Obeng Mensah, has reached out for public assistance to return home after he found himself homeless and struggling to survive on the streets of Manchester, United Kingdom. In a video that went viral, the musician revealed his dire situation, explaining that he has been sleeping outside and hasn't had the chance to bathe for a considerable period. \"I sleep on the street for now. I haven't even bathed for some time now. People help me to feed,\" he stated.\n\nBarosky, who has no family in the UK and a limited circle of friends, revealed that his return to Ghana is his top priority. He emphasized that while he needs a place to stay, his main desire is to reunite with his family back in Ghana. \"I need a room, but if I had to choose between having a room and returning to Ghana, I would choose to come home,\" he emphasized.\n\nBefore his current predicament, Barosky was a renowned musician in Ghana, known for his work on popular songs such as Kofi Nti’s 'Rakia' and Ofori Amponsah’s 'Otoolege.' His passion for music was nurtured during his time at Golden Six College in Laterbiokorshie, where he was Assistant Entertainment Prefect. He later honed his skills as a sound engineer under the guidance of renowned producer Appietus from 2002 to 2004 and later became his assistant engineer. His own music career took off with the release of the 10-track album 'Okyerewaa Ba' in 2007, which garnered significant attention. Barosky has since worked with several Ghanaian artists, including Ofori Amponsah, Kofi Nti, K.K. Fosu, and Sidney, among others. Now facing this challenging time, Barosky is reaching out to anyone who can help him in his journey back to Ghana.",
