Journalist addresses Young Linda's death
In an interview with YEN.com.gh, Germany-based Ghanaian journalist Nana Yaw Adjapong shared his thoughts on the tragic death of the Ghanaian TikToker.
“The death of Young Linda is tragic, especially considering she was a young mother of five. But what is even more shocking is how quickly many in the diaspora are attributing her passing to superstition or so-called ‘home witches.’ In this modern age, the very first step after any unexpected or controversial death should be a proper autopsy and not jumping to conclusions about witchcraft,” he said.
