Kumasi-based musician, Kweku Darlington has recounted how he battled a deadly and strange ailment for over a year.
In an interview on Joy Prime’s Prime Morning show, he narrated that he could neither do anything nor move out due to the severeness of the disease, which was the reason he was musically silent for sometime.
He did not take it seriously from the beginning until it increasingly became extremely dreadful. It was then he realized it was a spiritual attack and needed to seek attention immediately.
“It even came off my skin. It was so bad that I couldn’t even go out. I still have some of the marks on my skin. The whole idea was just to keep me inside so I couldn’t come outside because I’m dangerous when I’m outside. In a nutshell, I was buried with only my head out,” he told the host, Roselyn Felli.
According to Kweku Darlington, the condition stemmed from a breakup with some of his friends, who he said became enemies. He had moved to stay in Accra but relocated back to Kumasi to be properly healed.
Doctors and herbalists of the several medical and herbal centers he has been to, respectively, could not diagnose the kind of illness he was affected with in order to grant him medication. They finally resorted to prayer, which helped in identifying what exactly was the cause.
“It wasn’t a hospital thing but spiritual because it started with my eye. I went to the clinic, and they did everything they could do but didn’t find the cause. They gave me drugs and injections, spectacles, and other things, but nothing happened. So, it was a congregation that I used to join back at Atwea Mountains; I was there sometimes ago, and they were able to identify what was happening to me. So, after identifying it, we had to clear all of them before I could take drugs.”
Asked if he offended someone to merit such an incident, Kwaku Darlington said he had a misunderstanding with a friend, which was not serious because it was a normal argument he thinks could not have been taken so far to that extent.
The musician is gradually healing as the rushes are still on parts of his body. But he has released a new song, “Grateful to Your Ex,” which seeks to encourage partners who have broken up to appreciate their past relationships.
