Popular Ghanaian actor John Bredu Peasah, better known as Drogba from the acclaimed YOLO television series, is set to travel abroad for medical treatment following his doctors' recommendations.

This decision comes after an outpouring of support for the actor, who has been battling demyelinating disease for the past two years.

In an Instagram post on March 8, 2024, the actor expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming support he has received since his diagnosis and urged his fans to maintain their support, assuring them of regular updates on his treatment journey.

"It has been a while since you've heard from me due to a few challenges with my treatment and the need to seek treatment abroad as recommended by my doctors.

"I would like to thank everyone who has supported me to this stage. Thank you for showing concern and support.

"As I have been referred to receive further treatment abroad, I look forward to your continued support to help me receive the needed treatment for this neurological condition I am struggling with. God bless you all for your help in saving my life," he posted.

What happened to John Peasah

In March 2024, it was revealed that John Peasah was battling a serious health condition known as demyelination, which adversely affects the nervous system and can impair vision, coordination, and sensation.

His sister, Hannah Mensah, disclosed that Peasah's health issues surfaced during the final season of 'YOLO'.

In response to his situation, there has been a significant outpouring of support, including a visit and financial contributions from Dr. Bawumia, the NPP's flagbearer, and Drogba's friends.

A fundraising campaign was also launched to assist with the expenses of his treatment abroad.
