Sulemana Abdul Samed who is reported to be Ghana’s tallest man is appealing for financial help to undergo surgery to stop his growth.
29-year-old Samed, who stands at an incredible seven feet four inches said on Breakfast Daily on Citi TV on Tuesday, January 10, that Doctors at the Tamale Teaching Hospital have told him that he will continue to add to his height if the surgery is not performed.
“I need help for surgery because the doctors said the growth is in my head, so I need surgery to stop it,” Samed said, adding, that he is also suffering from chronic pains in his spinal cord.
Samed, popularly known as ‘Awuche,’ also stated that his gigantic stature also means he must use at least 14 yards of material to sew a single cloth.
He added that he has resorted to Issahaku Musah, a tailor to make his preferred outfit.
Mr. Musah has for the past seven years been making clothes for Sulemana.
This he said is taking a toll on his finances. He disclosed that his mobile money business has collapsed.
Aside from clothing, Awuche does not have a befitting bed.
His double-sized mattress and a student mattress have been combined to give him relative comfort, even that, he has to sleep in a diagonal way.
From afar, he looks tall and like a giant but a closer view of him reveals Awuche is physically unfit.
He is battling chronic wounds with a bandage tied to his left leg. There is also a visible wound on the right leg plus other health conditions.
Ordinarily, anyone in Awuche’s fame would’ve been excited, but he admits the thought of his health condition is draining.

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
