Agya Koo confirmed that his team was actively working to identify the individuals behind the TikTok post and that appropriate action would follow.

He also called on members of the public not to share the false report, and encouraged social media users to report the @blackgod page to the platform.

The incident has reignited conversations around the dangers of unverified content on social media, particularly fabricated stories about the deaths of well-known public figures.

Agya Koo remains one of the most recognisable actors in Ghana's Kumawood film industry, where he has built a loyal following over the course of his career.

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported on Agya Koo’s reaction to reports of Kwame Dzokoto’s death and the tributes from his Efiewura co-stars.

The veteran actor said he would believe the news only after confirming it himself, recalling previous false reports about Dzokoto’s death. The actor had dismissed similar rumours just a month earlier.
