In a recent interview on KOFI TV , Ghana Boy said he started losing his sight when he returned from the United States of America (USA) to join Kumawood.
He noted that, his predicaments have made him homeless, in spite of his role in raising high the flag of Ghana as a comedian.
Ghana Boy said his eye problems started in 2007 and have eventually rendered him blind.
“My living condition is very bad and many people have neglected me because of my blindness. I don’t have a place to live and even what to eat is also a problem for me”, he said with worry on his face.
According to him, despite being blind, he could still do jobs like acting, working on radio among others but he is not offered the chance.
“I am only blind but my senses are working correctly and can do many other jobs, like acting movies, being on radio, I can do all these things”, he said.
