Nana Yaa Brefo explained that she informed Ibrahim Mahama after she was told the huge amount of money Kofi Adoma needed to pay for his surgeries.

She said the renowned businessman later called to enquire about the unfortunate incident and the cost of the surgery, so she gave him the full information about Kofi Adoma's predicament.

Nana Yaa Brefo noted that she did not know the exact amount needed so she informed Ibrahim Mahama, who immediately promised to sponsor the surgery and called for Kofi Adoma and his wife Miracle to book a flight and travel abroad to undergo the necessary treatment.

She stated that the Engineers and Planners CEO donated $150k for the surgery but the eye specialists in Dubai detected an issue with Kofi Adoma's other eye so they had to also do surgery on that one, which increased the amount of money needed.
