According to him, his critics insulted and insisted he should seek medical attention rather than sharing his journey on social media
According to him, it was through TikTok that he met the late Osanju
Dr Ntakra Ohene explained that Osanju reached out to him shortly after he publicly disclosed his own battle with cancer.
“When I first spoke about my condition, many people insulted me,” he recalled. “Osanju kept messaging me, and by the third time, I finally responded.”
During that initial exchange, Osanju confided that he had been struggling with leukemia since birth. According to Dr. Ntakra Ohene, Osanju admitted he feared speaking openly about the illness because of how others might judge him. “I encouraged him to share his truth,” he said, emphasizing the importance of honesty and support in fighting stigma.
