Ghanaian actor John Bredu Peasah, also known as Drogba, is reportedly battling for his life after he was diagnosed with demyelination.

A demyelinating disease is a disorder that causes damage to the protective covering (myelin sheath) that surrounds nerve fibres in your brain, the nerves leading to the eyes (optic nerves) and the spinal cord.

It is reported that he has been fighting the illness for the last two and a half years.

He is however seeking financial support from the general public for medical care.

He rose to fame when he featured in one of Ghana’s most popular youth series, YOLO.
