Bank PHB sponsored The Apprentice Africa (TAA) came to a dramatic end on Tuesday night when Isaac Dankyi-Koranteng emerged The Apprentice with a $200,000.00 per annum job with Bank PHB. Isaac emerged after eighteen weeks of what has generally been described as the longest job interview in the world.

It had all started with 18 contestants from six different African countries, including Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana and Cameroon. Nine of the contestants were born, educated and made their living in their different countries in Africa while nine others were Africans either born, bred and educated abroad or had lived a good part of their adult life abroad either in America or Europe.

For the 18 weeks, the contestants were faced with different business tasks to test their different skills ranging from leadership, team playing, people management, temperament, organisation, creativity, innovation, negotiation, attitude, perseverance, to see which of them has the best set of skills to emerge The Apprentice.

All the business tasks were done under the watchful eyes of the camera, in two different teams created by the Apprentices in form of corporations. The two major corporations were the Zulu Corp made up initially of all the males in the house and the Matrix Corp, made up initially of the Females in the house.

At the end of each task, members of both corporations where invited to the boardroom to meet the CEO, Biodun Shobanjo, to present and defend the results of the tasks they just executed.

Glad the best man won. Was really afraid they were going to be bias against Isaac. Evidently Isaac out performed Eunice today. BTW did any one notice that the last task was not rated? Really wondered why. I submit that Eunice had the upperhand.
