Friday, October 23, 2026 - Ghanaian actor, comedian and broadcaster Seth Kwame Dzokoto
has died after reportedly collapsing during a live radio programme.
According to Ghana GBC, Dzokoto collapsed in the early hours
of Thursday, October 22 while participating as a panellist on the morning show
of Owass FM/Radio in Tarkwa, in Ghana's Western Region.
He was immediately rushed to a hospital in Tarkwa, where he
was pronounced de@d on arrival. He is said to have been battling a
kidney-related disease.
The news of his sudden passing was confirmed by the
Western Regional Communication Officer of the National Democratic Congress
(NDC), Kirk Mensah, who said:
“Our comrade Kwame Dzokoto of the Efiewura and Edziban fame
on a panel discussion on Owass Radio in Tarkwa collapsed and pronounced de@d on
arrival at the hospital.”
A livestream of the programme on Owass FM's Facebook page
appeared to capture the final moments before the incident. In the latter part
of the broadcast, Dzokoto seemed to be struggling to breathe and was seen
handing a bottle of water to another guest. Moments later, the camera became
unstable and the livestream was abruptly cut off.
Dzokoto rose to national prominence through his portrayal of
Judge Koboo in the popular television series Efiewura.
Further details, including official statements from his
family and information regarding funeral arrangements, have yet to be
announced.
