Oteele's family should handle him better
Reacting to the news of Oteele's sickness, ace entertainment journalist Owusu Worae has admonished the actor's family to be circumspect about his predicaments.
According to the head of entertainment news at TV3, not everything about an actor should be made public.
"Yes, it is good that the family informs Oteele's fans and the general public about his ailment, but I don't think sharing videos of him in his weakest moments is appropriate.
"One thing they should know is that as a star, he is a brand and some things must not be made public, no matter what," he said.
Ghanaians pray for Oteele's recovery
The videos of Oteele's situation have made many social media users emotional. Some prayed for him to get better soon.
