On Friday, January 2, 2026, Young Don returned to social media after embarking on a long hiatus since July 2025.
The controversial social commentator went off social media after previously sharing the news of a leg injury he sustained in a serious car accident. He also shared his plans to embark on some evangelical works after his recovery.
Young Don speaks about his health issues
In an audio recording shared by UK-based TikToker Gucci Derkyi on Thursday, January 1, 2026, Young Don shared that his health condition had worsened.
The social commentator noted that he had been informed by doctors that they needed to amputate one of his legs due to the severity of the injury he suffered in the accident in 2025.
Young Don stated that he risked losing his other leg if he failed to undergo the medical surgery. He noted that his health problems had affected his finances and that he had become bankrupt.
He stated that his family members had also withdrawn their financial support and regularly complained about how he was burdening them with his health issues.
Young Don noted that he was facing death and appealed to Ghanaians for financial support to recover from his current predicament.
In a subsequent TikTok live session, the social media personality noted that he was stranded in Johannesburg, South Africa, after travelling there to seek medical attention for his health problems.

In a video he shared on his official Instagram page on Monday, January 5, 2026, Twene Jonas, who has previously beefed with Young Don, noted that he predicted Young Don's deportation from the US in 2025 since the laws were stricter there than in Ghana.
The social media personality dismissed his colleague's previous claims of owning a US passport as false, stating that it was impossible for him to have one after relocating abroad a few years ago.
