President Mahama has shown the family of William Addo how kind of a man he is—by paying for the eye surgery of the veteran actor.
For some months now, the actor has been in news begging for funds to have an urgent eye surgery—but that public begging ended when President Mahama read about his appeal in the news and called.
Speaking to Hitz Fm this morning, William Addo said;
He called to say he has received information regarding my plight and was sorry about how things have turned out. He promised to pay for the second part of the surgery which will come on next month. So I was very surprised that an ordinary William Addo could get such a favour. On the 4th, Mr Beautiful [Clement Bonney] called to say that president has given him the money to pay for the surgery and another GHC 2000 for my upkeep.
William says President Mahama has paid the money to the chosen clinic and he will undergo the surgery soon.
And for this, the actor is immensely grateful to the President, so he said;
I want to thank him [Mahama] most sincerely and pray that God himself will keep him in good hands so he continues his work and do it well. I’m so grateful to you people. God himself will bless all of you.
William Addo needed just 5,000 GHS for the eye-surgery,
