Ghanaian broadcast journalist Kofi Adoma Nwanwani has spoken publicly for the first time about the incident that led to him being shot in the eye during a festival in Dormaa and its aftermath.
The renowned broadcaster suffered a life-threatening injury after being shot in the face while covering the Kwafie Festival in Dormaa Ahenkro in December 2024.
In a video, Kofi Adoma, CEO of Kofi TV, was seen with one eye covered by a bandage as he described the excruciating pain he has been enduring, including bleeding whenever he sneezes.
Visibly emotional, the journalist recounted how he was determined to support the festival despite the shooting. However, he expressed disappointment over what he perceives as neglect from Dormaahene, even though he expected nothing from him.
Kofi Adoma also revealed his disappointment with the Chief Executive Officer of Angel Broadcasting Network, alleging that the CEO Vincent Opare, said he cares about the company more than his life.
In a video shared online by blogger ZionFelix, a visibly distressed Kofi Adoma said:
“I want to say everything about my incident before whatever will happen to me happens. People are saying it was just powder. When I heard that, I was surprised. I never expected my own Dormaa people to do this to me.
“I will never wish my situation even on my worst enemy. Those talking anyhow about my condition should hasten slowly because anything can happen to anyone at any time.
“I was shocked at what Angel CEO Vincent said about my condition. Sometimes, certain bad things need to happen to us so we can truly see whether the people around us genuinely care.”
