He had cut out sugar and salt from his diet and turned to what he believed was natural honey sourced from a village.

"I decided to buy pure honey from the village to be safe. But not knowing the honey they gave me was infused with paint sugar, caramel. So I didn't realise I was bloating, and soon when I got to know of it, I ceased taking it in. But naturally I am fine, and I thank the Mahama family," he said.

The actor, who had been battling high blood pressure and heart complications, shared that the Mahama family played a significant role in supporting him through his medical journey, including flying him abroad for surgery.
