When the myelin sheath is damaged, nerve impulses slow or even stop, causing neurological problems.

His colleague actor Jeffrey Nortey was the one who broke the sad news and appealed for support and financial assistance for John Bredu Peasah popularly known as Drogba.

“Last week, we came for the extraction of the fluid from his spine. And that is what we are waiting for the result. They said they have to take the test outside for more inquiries before we have the results out,” she stated.

Hannah added that her brother is still weak and only able to do some actions with help. She appealed for support from the general population to assist her brother to recuperate completely.

“In cash, in kind, in any way… a lot of people are calling, including a lot of doctors. People are calling with ideas. So we just pray that they have a solution,” she said.
