Pastor Kingsley Gyamfi, the boyfriend of the late Dr. Grace Boadu, has disclosed that his partner became addicted to painkillers to relieve her of the pain she was going through.
According to him, the deceased was going through some pains after she had a miscarriage, hence, she resorted to taking a drug called ‘pethidine’ to manage the situation.
He said that when he realized his late partner was taking the drug consistently, he advised her to refrain from it but she did not listen to him, which affected their relationship at some point.
Speaking on The Delay Show and monitored by GhanaWeb, the pastor denied being arrested by the police as a result of injecting Dr. Grace Boadu with the medicine.
‘She [Dr. Grace Boadu] started taking painkillers [Pethidine] after her miscarriage. Because it helped her relieve the pain, she was taking it consistently. I was not in support of it, so I decided not to go to her place sometimes; then she would let people talk to me before we came back again. It is not true that
I injected her with an overdose and I was arrested,’ he told Deloris Frimpong Manso during the show.
Pastor Kingsley further denied claims that the late herbal doctor died due to the drugs she was addicted to.
‘I don’t think she died as a result of overdosing the pethidine. She was faring well while she was taking it; it could be that something else caused her death.’
