Bipolar disorder patient, Abena Korkor Addo has revealed that the effect of her current mental drug is worse than cocaine.
Speaking on the KSM show she indicated that anytime she takes the medicine, Lithium carbonate, makes her act unusual unlike her previous drugs.
She recalled an incident in a hospital where she destroyed air conditioners, broke louvers and cut herself as a result of the drug.
According to her, it took the intervention of TV3 to clear the damages she caused at the hospital.
“ Even with my medication now I am on Lithium carbonate, it is worse than cocaine. When I was in Abokobi, Dr Nfordjour brain and mind clinic, I destroyed ACs, I used my hands to break louvers, I was cutting myself. TV3 paid over 60,000 cedis. I don’t know if they have finished paying. When I am aware when I am creating damages. It’s nice,” she added.
In 2021, Abena Korkor was removed from her position as a host of the TV3 program, Ladies Circle show.
The decision came after she posted a semi-nude video of herself on the multimedia messaging app Snapchat, which quickly went viral.
Taking to social media, Abena Korkor announced the termination of her contract herself.
She stated that her employers had contacted her to inform her of their decision to remove her from the show, which she co-hosts with Anita Akuffo and other women.
According to Abena Korkor, the Media General group, which owns TV3, cited a recent video of her appearing nude, wearing only lingerie, as the reason for her termination.
She revealed that the show’s sponsors deemed the video to be negative publicity, and as a result, they did not want their brands associated with it, prompting her employers to take action.
As part of her announcement that she no longer works with TV3, Abena Korkor shared a snippet of the video on her Instagram reel.
Captioned that: “May I loose it all but not myself. I am no longer a TV presenter, in fact, I don’t fit the script and I don’t think I ever will.No one should tag any organization here.”
