Actor Wayoosi born Joseph Osei has reacted to reports that President
John Dramani Mahama donated an amount of GH¢5,000 to support him when he
was on his sick bed.
The
Kumawood star who was discharged from the
Komfo Anokye Teaching
Hospital in Kumasi days ago speaking on New Mercury in the Garden City
disclosed that it was rather the Minister for Tourism, Culture and
Creative Arts, Hon. Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare who delegated some industry
players to give him the amount but not the first gentleman of the land
as it was reported.
“Let me clear this issue. It is
not true that the president gave me ¢5,000. What happened was that,
James Twumasi Ankrah and Rocksone informed Minister for Tourism, Culture
and Creative Arts, Hon. Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare about my sickness.
It
was the woman who brought me ¢5,000. As for president Mahama, it was
Mr. Beautiful who told me that the man says he wants to help me by taking me abroad for a transplant.
I didn’t hear from the man himself but Mr. Beautiful told me that” Wayoosi told Eugene Moratt, the host.
Joseph
Nana Osei Kofi as known in real life later thanked the minister for her
kind gesture she showed him when he was on his sick.
“Let
me use this opportunity to thank the woman. This is what we call
surprise. The woman really surprised me. God richly bless her”
President
Mahama was reported to have donated the said amount to the actor when
he was admitted at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital in Kumasi. Clement
Bonney aka Br. Beautiful who confirmed that donation said the President
made the donation through the Ministry of Tourism.
