Captain Planet leads calls for help after distressing video of Okomfo Kwadee surfaces online

Ghanaian musician Captain Planet of 4X4 has made an emotional plea to the music industry to take immediate action to support hiplife icon Okomfo Kwadee before it's too late. In a tweet posted on Wednesday, February 5, 2025, Captain Planet wrote in a mix of English and Pidgin, "Ghana music industry, make we people do something for Okomfo Kwadee before e go be too late." The plea was prompted by a heartbreaking viral video showing Okomfo Kwadee, once celebrated for his energetic performances and timeless hits, currently in a distressing state, singing some of his old songs. Radio personality Maximous Mensah, better known as Dr. Pounds, also shared the video on Instagram, expressing his concern, “What can we do paaa to help our brother?? Asem oooo so sad! Charely legend! GOD HELP OUR BROTHER," he wrote. In the past, well-meaning individuals, including music producer Abraham Ohene Djan and Evangelist Lord Kenya have attempted to secure medical help for Kwadee.
