The sudden death of Ghanaian content creator Osanju, who passed away on September 1, 2025, has left Ghana’s online community in devastation. An elderly content creator who was almost like Osanju’s mother has opened up about the content creator’s final moments.
Ama Pokuaa, aka Obolo, had taken Osanju as her son. Obolo’s biological daughter, Ama Yeboah, was a close friend and collaborator of Osanju.
According to Obolo, Osanju took ill during the wee hours of September 1, 2025, forcing neighbours to rush him to the Komfo Anoke Teaching Hospital.
“At dawn, his landlord called to say that Osanju was sick. I asked them what was going on. The landlord said Osanju had suddenly become lean and couldn’t talk,” Obolo explained.
Obolo, speaking about Osanju’s demise, said she could not believe it when she got the news that the viral content creator didn’t make it.
Osanju, a few hours before his passing, had expressed his strong disappointment over Barcelona’s match with Rayo Vallecano, which ended in a draw.
Fans and friends noted that he showed no signs of illness in his last video on TikTok.
In January 2025, Osanju lost his mother, Veronica Frimpong, popularly known as Amonu, in a similar fashion.
The late TikToker, in an interview, said his mother had never shown any signs of an illness before her sudden passing.
“Amonu has never been to the hospital before. She has never been sick for two days. Her death was just instant,” Osanju recounted
in an interview after his mum died.
Osanju, with over a million followers, rose to fame in 2023 after a video of him defending why Samsung was better than the iPhone went viral.
The video earned him a reward from Samsung and later an invitation to Nana Ama McBrown’s Onua TV show, where he talked about his existing battle with leukaemia for the first time on national TV.

TikToker and host of Edziban on Onua TV, Oheneba Jude, a very close friend and collaborator of Osanju, has broken his silence on the death rumours.
In a post on September 1, 2025, he shared photos of himself and Osanju on social media. The photos captured their moments from the late TikToker’s mum’s funeral.
He captioned one of the photos, ‘God, why’ with crying emojis. His post has hiked up the emotions of netizens as they mourn the TikToker.
