Veteran actor, Prince Yawson known in showbizness as Waakye is reported to have been rushed to the hospital Presspeep.com confirms.
Narrating the hapless incident, Waakye said:
“On Friday, 3rd March, I had a long sleep in the evening so in the night, it was difficult for me to sleep. I got up from the bed and all of a sudden, I started sweating profusely.
My heart begun panting faster. I felt weak all of a sudden. I felt like easing myself and did so but still, I was not feeling ok.
“It occurred to me to rush out and take coconut water. Though I was wearing only trousers (bare chest and foot), I rushed out, bought a coconut and drunk the water but the situation got worse.
I felt like sleeping and so lay on the vendor’s sack containing the bulk of coconuts he sells.
‘Still, I was not getting ok. I became weaker and helpless – so I finally had to lay on the pavement of the street. That was when my heart began throbbing like never before.
At that point everything was becoming dark. I was dying slowly. All I could hear was the voice of the vendor saying I should be sent to the hospital.
“It was at 37 hospital that the doctors explained to me that it was a mild heart attack – blood was not flowing through one valve of my heart.
They mentioned a technical name for it but I can’t recollect. They too claim they may have to refer me to Korle–Bu hospital if my situation does not get better with time.”
