Media personality Halifax Ansah-Addo has condemned the harsh criticism and lack of support directed at journalist Kofi Adoma, who is currently battling to regain his sight.

Speaking on United Showbiz, Halifax expressed disappointment over the treatment Kofi Adoma has received despite his contributions to society through his platform, Kofi TV.

"Let’s make money o. This is what will happen when you get into trouble," he remarked. "I can't mention five journalists who have done more charity than Kofi Adoma through his platform Kofi TV. Unless he does not hear that someone has a problem. He does everything within his means to seek help for that person. Is this his reward today as he encounters life challenges?"

Kofi Adoma, known for using his platform to assist individuals in need, is facing public scrutiny at a time when he requires support the most.

Kofi Adomah, who is currently at risk of losing his sight, have been hoping for some comforting words or actions from the Dormaahene and others to help alleviate his distress.

This is particularly because Kofi’s eye condition emerged after he was shot on the Dormaahene’s land (Dormaa), and because Kofi Adomah is a son of the Bono soil.

However, when the Dormahene finally spoke, it appears his statements were far from what many had expected.

Netizens have expressed disappointment that instead of offering words of solace or support for Kofi Adomah, the Dormaahene rather labelled the situation as a mere propaganda.

He emphasised that all the evidence, including a video showing Kofi Adomah being shot in the eye while covering the festival in Dormaa, is circulating on social media.

Therefore, labelling the situation as propaganda is unfair.

"Which one is untrue about Kofi's shooting? We have seen the video, and it is trending all over. So which one is the propaganda? I now understand in Kofi's press conference where he said he wished he had died.

“An accident can happen to anyone. Also, I don't know and have the information Dormaahene has which is making him say that Kofi's incident is propaganda but the information many Ghanaians have shown that Kofi is not pretending," he said.
