As an African king became a German mechanic

Any of us would not mind to spend a king or queen: bask in the sun and watch as citizens are doing everything themselves. But it turns out to be a king does not always mean to live in the castle, take the servants of the throne room and arrange receptions.

Website will tell, sometimes royal life may be closely linked to oil, grease and straightening crumpled wings.









King Togba Ngorifiya Cephas Kosi Bunce is the supreme ruler of the territory Hoho in Ghana.

In addition to the 200 thousand citizens as their leader he is considered as another 2 million people Ewe representatives living in Togo.









At the same time the king does not live either in Ghana or Togo. His house is located in Ludwigshafen, Germany, where he works as a car mechanic ... on his service station.
