Father of highlife musician Akwaboah Jnr, Kwadwo Akwaboah Snr has disclosed how went blind after a spiritual attack on him.
According to the legend – who was a highlife musician and record producer — his blindness started ten years ago when he was living and working in Amsterdam, Holland.
he says it started when he woke up one day and realised that one of his eyes had blood spot on it and after consulting the doctor for treatment, there was no better result.
“I woke up one day after playing with a band and realised that my right eye had blood spot on it,” he said. “So, I visited my doctor who gave me an eye drop to use. But after using for some time, it didn’t work.”
Kwadwo Akwaboah revealed this during an interview on TV XYZ.
He disclosed that after treatment in Holland didn’t yield any better result, he relocated to Ghana to try traditional medicine because he believes in it more than the orthodox medicines.
After visiting herbalists and spiritual men in Ghana, the problem only kept further deteriorating.
Akwaboah Snr says he believes his blindness was caused by spiritual forces, and that he has hope that he will see one day.
The legend artiste says, though his son, Akwaboah, has been giving him massive financial support, however, he feels he is draining him.
“To be honest, my son has been providing all the financial support since I arrived in Ghana. He is just a little so I can’t always depend on him for my needs. He always checks up on me and sends me money. I’ve never needed money but I feel I can’t put on my burden on him.”
Akwaboah Jnr has released remix of his father’s hit single, titled “Awerekyekyere” and is currently promoting it
