Twenty-four year-old Derick Ofusu Gyan whose girlfriend is currently serving a five-year jail term for pouring acid on him, has denied claims that he has recovered from injuries he sustained as a result of the attack.
According to Gyan, he has not been able to step out of his house since he was left visually impaired and disfigured after the incident. Apart from that, Derick says he can barely lift up his two hands, adding that he constantly feels sharp pains in his legs.

Gyan said,his life has become meaningless since he can no longer go about his daily activities.
“I have been home since that day, my eyes cannot see, I have not been able to move out. I have been indoors for the past seven months now”, he said to debunk claims by Gloria that he is working again.

He also denied the claim by Gloria that the surgery he underwent was paid for by the convict’s mother.
“They never took care of my surgery, no one reached out to me from her side, so I am surprised that she will say her mother took care of my surgery. I want the public to know that all that she said isn’t true. She has not apologised to me as she claimed. I have been home since that (day) seven-month suffering. I have been there ….. Depression is killing me. I am not fit,” he voiced out in pain.
