NLA donates ¢15k to visually impaired veteran actor William Addo

According to the NLA, they could not sit quietly after seeing the actor, who had gone blind some years back, open up about his struggles in the years following his visual impairment.

Speaking to TV personality MzGee, Deputy Coordinator Ama Frimpong stated that the actor used to feature in the NLA’s advertisements.

She stated that after years of partnership the Authority wanted to come to the actor’s aid, hence the donation.

This comes after the actor in an interview with MzGee revealed he had been struggling after going blind about 10 years ago.

He stated that he had an outstanding debt of about GHC5,000 and appealed for funds

The veteran stated that despite the operation his right eye which at the time was healthy, began to hurt and gradually he lost sight in that eye too.

He stated that he was thankful the TV personality came to interview him and tell the world about his problem.
