President
John Mahama has donated an amount of 5,000 cedis to cater for the
medical bills of actor Joseph Nana Osei Kofi popularly known as Wayoosi.
According
to entertainment website, abrantepa.com, the president made the
donation through the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts and
joins a long list of similar donations made by the first gentleman
towards the welfare of entertainers.
Earlier this
week, photos surfaced on the internet that showed colleague actors
visiting, Waayosi at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital with his
condition said to be ‘critical’.
The photos sought to quell inaccurate social media reports that the actor had died.
Other
reports also say the actor is battling kidney diseases while others
claim he has been placed under a curse which caused his stomach to
bloat.
A number of fellow actors including Vivian Jill and Salinko have paid a visit to Wayoosi.
The 40 year old is well known for role as a child (because of his diminutive stature) in numerous Kumawood comedy films.
The film industry in Kumasi, where films are shot in the local Akan language, is informally called Kumawood.
