Kwame Dzokoto’s Final Moments On Owass FM Before He Collapsed During Live Discussion

Ghanaian actor and broadcaster Kwame Dzokoto experienced a sudden change in his condition while participating in a political discussion on Owass FM in Tarkwa, moments before he collapsed during the live programme on Thursday, October 22, 2026.

Details emerging from the broadcast describe how Dzokoto appeared to become unwell during the discussion. He reportedly asked another individual to help him open a bottle of water as his condition changed.

The radio host, who noticed what was happening, immediately called for a break. The broadcast was subsequently interrupted, bringing the discussion to an abrupt end.

Dzokoto was reportedly rushed to a hospital in Tarkwa, in Ghana’s Western Region, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. The medical cause of his collapse and death had not been publicly established in the reports available at the time of writing.

The incident has drawn attention because it happened during a live radio discussion, with footage of the programme providing a glimpse of the moments leading up to the interruption.

Dzokoto was a familiar face in Ghanaian entertainment, particularly for his portrayal of Judge Koboo in the popular television series Efiewura. He also hosted Edziban, a TV3 programme that explored Ghanaian food and cuisine, and worked as a radio presenter at stations including Skyy Power FM in Takoradi and Hello FM in Kumasi.

Beyond his work in entertainment and broadcasting, Dzokoto was involved in politics as a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). He contested the Tarkwa-Nsuaem parliamentary seat in the 2016 general elections.

His reported death comes weeks after he publicly addressed rumours about his health in September 2026. During an interview, he rejected reports that he had died and spoke about health challenges, including high blood pressure and diabetes. However, no confirmed information has established a connection between those earlier health disclosures and his collapse during the radio programme.

Further details about the circumstances surrounding his death, including an official statement from his family and funeral arrangements, were still awaited in the reports reviewed.

The sudden incident has left questions about what happened during the broadcast, while the precise medical cause of Dzokoto’s collapse remains unconfirmed.
