Why Ghanaian Actor Abraham Attah Took Toms to the 2016 Oscars Red Carpet

Making his debut on the red carpet for the 88th annual Academy Oscar awards, 15 year-old Ghanaian star of Beasts of No Nation, Abraham Attah stepped out looking super sharp in a fresh hair cut, bow tie and black tuxedo – and a pair of Toms loafers, much to most people’s surprise.

Not that Toms aren’t a fine brand to rock, just that its one synonymous with a more casual footing, and its dedication to donate a pair of shoes to children in need, with every pair sold – which turned out to be the very reason Mr Attah chose them for his fine Oscars outfit.

The young actor, who co-starred alongside Idris Elba in Beasts of No Nation (which controversially didn’t result in a nomination at this year’s  Oscars) told E! News that the brand would be donating 10,000 pairs of shoes to the people of Ghana, making his collaboration with Toms a merging of fashion and charity.

We at SPICE like your style, Abraham and are sure that your mother, Mrs Attah must be very proud.
