I don’t believe in karma; I believe that life happens to people. Bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people. All, in most cases, being the consequence of nothing. Life just happened to them.
If by coincidence bad happens to a bad person, the we give glory to God.
I am not saying Medikal is being paid back for whatever wrong he has done. If life played out like this, I would not be around.
If karma did exist, Medikal should be dealt with in a more drastic manner.
Now, hear me out.
I November, 2019, Frank Arhin, a 19-year-old boy at the time, who loved Medikal because he is from Sowutuom, a community the rapper highlights as his home, attended his maiden concert, This is Sowutuom.
At the event, one of the very huge hanging speakers fell on 19-year-old Frank Arhin, leaving him completely paralyzed.
He was taken to the hospital and needed a number of surgeries. The first surgery was 25,000 Ghana Cedis. Medikal, who was handling it through his mom paid 11,000 Cedis and abandoned the boy, who was still at hospital, who’d go on to spend two more months there. After Adom FM reported the issue, he was forced to pay the remaining. And that was it.
He refused to go beyond this.
While Frank was bedridden and his body was being destroyed by bedsores due to prolonged stay in bed, Medikal was flaunting his wealth on social media, giving out thousands of dollars to chase clout.
He ignored Arhin completely.
As I speak, three years on, Arhin is completely paralyzed for good, and it’s medically impossible to change his condition. A young, vibrant boy.
Medikal had the means to help this boy. A fraction of the money he is lamenting for wasting could have been used to improve the condition of Frank Arhin.
He could have used his platforms to raise funds for him.
It’s not that he wasn’t aware; he was aware. Even multimedia tried getting him to take responsibility, but he completely ignored the boy.
For me, who visited Arhin several times, who raised funds for him and kept pushing for his care, anytime I see Medikal boast of his wealth and flaunt them, I get angry. I get angry because I know a 19-year-old who needed just a little of that to hope for an improved life.
In a semi-completed building, Frank laid in a poorly ventilated room on a half-sized bed. Unable to move, he could lay in one spot for hours.
Money that is not used to help victims like Frank deserves to be wasted on plastic surgeries and unviable business ventures; it deserves to sponsor ventures that lead to the kind of heartbreak he is going through.
Frank has lived with the worst form of it on a daily basis for the best part of the past four years, with the painful part being that there is no hope for him.
Frank is currently in his home town, permanently on bed and permanently dependent on people to; eat, drink, bath, pee be able to bath, pee and poo.
His back sour is gone but he remains in the same state. The autopedic bed that has served him well and prevented the sour is said to be spoilt now and needs replacing
Meanwhile, Medikal was freely and happily showing off his wealth with zero care of how the wreckless hanging of speakers destroy the life of an innocent young man.
He knows of Frank’s suffering, he knows that the boy is alive, for 4 years, he has not managed to come to the place of empathy for the boy.
In view of this, any venture that ensure that he wastes that money and receive some pain is the doing of the Lord.
Medikal Frank is still in bed.
Such a person in my estimation is not worthy of sympathy, when he talks of himself as one with a heart, those of us who have seen the suffering of Frank know that the money is for clout chasing and women pleasing.
