Ghanaian actor John Peasah, popularly known as Drogba from the TV series YOLO, has denied viral reports claiming businessman Ibrahim Mahama offered $88,000 to cover his medical expenses.
The actor described the reports circulating on social media as false and emotionally distressing, expressing disappointment over what he says is the spread of misinformation about his health condition.
Reacting emotionally online, Drogba questioned why people would treat his health situation as content for attention.
“How can someone play with my health like it’s a joke? Like my suffering is a game?” he wrote.
He further lamented that some bloggers were being insensitive, stating that the false reports were affecting him emotionally.
“This is my life, not content,” he added.
Despite the situation, the actor said he remains hopeful and continues to trust in God as he battles his health challenges.
The reports had claimed that Ibrahim Mahama had stepped in to fully finance his treatment abroad, with quotes suggesting he had pledged not to “watch him die.” However, Drogba insists no such arrangement has been made.
