“This is my 5th hand surgery, I pray it’s the last” – Nana Ama McBrown emotionally reveals

After months away from the spotlight, Ghanaian actress and TV host Nana Ama McBrown has opened up about her long-standing health battles stemming from a life-changing accident.

Speaking on Onua Showtime in an interview shared on August 24, 2025, McBrown revealed that she recently underwent another surgery on her arm — the fifth operation she has endured since the crash.

“I can tell you for sure that ever since I got the accident, my life has changed completely. If you have been following me very well, you will know that anytime I go through a problem, I look up to God and plead for mercy. This is the fifth time I have had surgery on my arm,” she shared.

The celebrated actress disclosed that her arm has broken four times since the accident and questioned whether less privileged victims would have received the same medical care.

“I keep asking myself, assuming this accident happened to someone who cannot afford the medical bills, does it mean the person’s arm will be cut off?” she asked.

McBrown also addressed fans’ concerns about why she continues to work despite her condition. According to her, she has no choice but to push through her pain to provide for her family.

“I did not deliberately break my arm, but you know if I don’t work, there is no way I can provide for my family. I have been working with one arm for almost 13 years. I am doing all so I can secure a future for myself. So, it is not like I enjoy working despite having this issue,” she explained.
