Answer: One Hen is based on true events and portrays the story of Kojo, a young Ghanaian kid who converts a tiny loan into a thriving farm and a source of income for many. Kojo had to drop out of school after his father died in order to help his mother collect firewood to sell.
When his mother obtains a loan from a group of villagers, she repays it a small sum of money to her son Kojo buys a fowl with this small loan. Kojo is still alive a year later and has amassed a hen herd of 25. Kojo is able to return to school thanks to his money.
Kojo's farm also expands to become the largest in the area.
I checked with my mom, who lived from that time period, and she said that it would cost around the price of 25 to 50 cents.
