Musician Wendy Shay has responded to the backlash after donating cash to K.K Kabobo on camera.
In an interview on Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz, Wendy Shay explained that, while she frequently engages in charitable acts off-camera, she decided to donate to K.K Kabobo publicly to raise awareness about his plight.
She emphasised that, her gesture was not merely about the donation but to draw attention to the urgent need for assistance.
“I do a lot of donations off-camera and give back to society. This particular gesture was different because I was actually calling people to come to his aid. I wanted to show people the actual situation so they would come forth with help” the musician explained.
Wendy Shay’s donation of GH₵10,000 was intended to support K.K Kabobo’s treatment for liver disease.
