Kwame Dzokoto dies after collapsing during a radio show: Video of last moments.

[VIDEO INSERT]: Ghanaian actor, comedian, and broadcaster Seth Kwame Dzokoto has reportedly died at the age of 51 after collapsing during a live radio broadcast. The sudden tragedy occurred on Thursday morning, October 22, 2026, at Tarkwa, in the Western Region. The unexpected passing of the veteran media personality has sent shockwaves through the country’s entertainment and political landscapes.

Dzokoto was participating as a guest on the morning show "Oman Nkoso" on Owass FM/Radio. During the live broadcast, he reportedly experienced severe breathing difficulties. A livestream captured on the station’s Facebook page showed him struggling to breathe and handing a bottle of water to a fellow panelist right before the transmission was abruptly cut off.

Following the collapse, station management and personnel quickly rushed him to a nearby hospital in Tarkwa. Regrettably, medical professionals pronounced him dead upon arrival. The management of Owass FM subsequently released a statement confirming the tragic occurrence, expressing deep sadness over the emergency that occurred in the course of their programming. In the political arena, his demise was officially verified by Kirk Mensah, the Western Regional Communication Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

Dzokoto was a dedicated member and activist within the NDC. He famously contested the Tarkwa-Nsuaem parliamentary seat on the party's ticket during the 2016 general elections, though he ultimately lost the seat to the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) George Mireku Duker.

Beyond politics, Dzokoto earned national acclaim as an icon of Ghanaian showbiz and television. He endeared himself to millions of households across the country through his stellar portrayal of Judge Koboo in the long-running television comedy series Efiewura. His charisma and unforgettable catchphrases cemented his status as one of the nation's premier comic actors.

He achieved further widespread popularity as the host of the culinary show Edziban on TV3 Ghana, where he toured various local food joints and showcased rich Ghanaian cuisines. His deep ties to the media industry also saw him serving in major administrative roles, including a tenure as the General Manager of Accra-based Pluzz FM.

The sudden loss comes just weeks after the entertainer addressed public concerns regarding his health. In late September 2026, Dzokoto revealed in an interview that he had previously battled blood pressure-related heart conditions and undergone surgery abroad. While further specific details regarding the clinical cause of his collapse are yet to emerge, tributes have already begun pouring in from fans, colleagues, and politicians honoring his vast contributions to public service and the arts.
