My reason for pursing college education. My name is Byron Nii Baan Barnor. I was born on the December 5, 1979 in Kotobabi, a suburb of Accra in Ghana. I am 5 feet 10 inches tall and dark in complexion. I have a broad face with dark, thick curly hair. I have a few strains of hair around my chain and a mustache with sparkling white teeth and a smooth face, which gives me a youthful appearance. I have a good physique and a friendly countenance full of exuberance and reserve energy. I'm the first of three children born to my parents Mr. Edwin Barnor (father) and Mrs. Juliet Barnor (mother).
