In 1975, a man walked out of a Ghanaian prison with nothing but a story, and that story would go on to swindle millions across three continents. Meet John Ackah Blay-Miezah: the "Kerosene Boy" from a small village in western Ghana who charmed his way into the company of presidents, diplomats, and billionaires.

This week on This Really Happened In Africa, we trace how one man's obsession with a stolen kingdom, a dead president's legacy, and a web of beautiful lies made him one of the greatest con artists the world has never heard of.
