“Fella Makafui hasn’t reached out. When the thing came, she reached out to Jeffery Nortey. She has my number, so Jeffery Nortey was surprised. Later, she reached out to me with a different number and asked me when I was free. I told her I am always free, and since then, I haven’t heard from her,” Drogba stated.

Drogba further indicated that he reached out to other colleagues in the movie industry, while others contacted him when the news of his ailment broke, but they all failed to make any commitment.

According to Drogba, he contacted colleagues like Salma Mumin, Kisa Gbekle, and John Dumelo, among others, but they have not yet extended any assistance to him.

Drogba said he understands that everyone has their challenges and isn't expecting them to fund all his bills. However, his industry colleagues should not wait for him to pass away before they visit or support his family.

“They shouldn't wait for something to happen to me before they come and say sweet words, and the sweet words wouldn't bring me back.”
