The unbreakable spirit of Ghanaians shines once more as citizens at home and abroad rally behind celebrated broadcaster Kofi Adoma Nwanwani in his battle to save his eyesight. The GoFundMe campaign set up to support his medical expenses has now exceeded GH₵160,000, showing an outpouring of love and support from well-wishers.
A Desperate Fight to Save His Sight
Kofi Adoma, a well-known journalist and CEO of Kofi TV, has been grappling with a severe eye condition, a consequence of a past shooting incident that left lasting damage. In a bid to prevent permanent blindness, his close friend and fellow media personality, Kofi Magraheb, took it upon himself to initiate a GoFundMe campaign to raise the needed funds for specialized medical care.
The online fundraiser, launched on March 14, 2025, quickly gained traction, attracting donations from across the globe. Within ten days, the campaign had amassed a staggering €9,600, equivalent to GH₵160,000, accounting for 19% of the ultimate goal of €50,000. This remarkable feat underscores the love and gratitude Ghanaians hold for the journalist, who has often used his platform to advocate for the underprivileged.
The Journey to Restoration
Kofi Adoma has now embarked on a critical medical journey, seeking specialized care at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, one of the world’s leading centers for ophthalmology. Before heading to the UK, he underwent initial medical procedures in Dubai, where his condition was closely assessed using advanced Cornea Topography technology.
His wife, Miracle Adoma, shared a touching video on Facebook, showing Kofi Adoma in a Dubai hospital undergoing an eye examination. The footage, which has since gone viral, drew an emotional response from fans and followers who continue to hope and pray for his full recovery.
