Dr Bamumia made a promise to me and I know he will fulfil it – Drogba of Yolo fame

Yolo actor, John Peasah, popularly known as Drogba has expressed gratitude to Ghanaians and the Vice President for their love and support during his battle with the demyelinating disease.

The actor who has been diagnosed with a demyelinating disease has for the past few months been calling for support from Ghanaians to support him financially as he seeks medical attention abroad.

This caught the attention of the Vice President of Ghana Dr Bawumia, who visited the ailing YOLO actor, to offer his support during this challenging time.

John Peasah, who is still seeking support from the general public mentioned in an interview with DJ Slim on Daybreak Hitz that he still needs a huge sum of money to see him through treatment abroad.

The actor seized the opportunity to throw a gentle reminder to the public and individuals including the Vice President who made promises to him.

“The problem now is I am not seeing any improvement, so I am reaching out to him. I know he is busy with his campaign but I’m trying to let him know that this is his promise to me.

“I am very grateful to him for coming to show support and honouring me in my home,” he said

The Ghanaian actor is urgently seeking $280,000 to fund his ongoing medical treatment for Stiff Person Spectrum Disorder and GAD Positive Cerebellar Ataxia.

In an Instagram post on August 14, 2024, Peasah shared that his current treatments have been ineffective, and his financial resources are nearly exhausted.

“Unfortunately, I’m not responding to treatment and have been spending almost all my resources, which are now almost depleted,” he wrote.

As John Peasah continues his battle for recovery, the call for support remains strong, and efforts are ongoing to raise the necessary funds for his specialized care.
