Drogba has grabbed headlines in the past few years after being diagnosed with stiff person syndrome, a serious neurological condition that causes severe pain, restricted movement, and which he says is expensive to manage.

He has embarked on a widespread public fundraising drive with little success, leading him to slam some of his former acting colleagues from his YOLO days for abandoning him.

Fella Makafui responds strongly to Drogba's abandonment allegation

In an interview with Sammy Kay Media, he said popular actress Fella Makafui has never visited since he started battling the SPS for some years now.

“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.

He also called out other actors such as Salma Mumin, Kisa Gbekle, and John Dumelo, among others, for personally reaching out to them for help without any success.
