Cause of death of Kohwe?
Kohwe has been suffering from a stroke he sustained a few weeks ago and had been hospitalised.
He was receiving treatment for his ailment but sadly passed away.
That wasn’t the only thing Kohwe was suffering from. Like Psalm Adjetefio, Kohwe had been in the news several times begging for aid from Ghanaians.
Somehow, his plea was never responded to in a massive way.
He was left on his own despite his numerous pleas for help.
In one of his old interviews, Kohwe warned that Ghanaians should not wait for him to die before coming out with accolades and trying to honour his memory.
Kowhe pleaded for support from Ghanaians to help him whilst he’s alive because whatever they will do or say after he’s dead won’t bring him back to life.
“Don’t wait for me to die, before you pay glowing tribute to me for my wonderful contribution, your tribute will be meaningless because it will not bring me back to life,” he said.
It seems we all failed him, and now his prophecy would come true.
Watch people come out with accolades about his life and send huge donations to his family now that he can’t be helped anymore!

Kohwe became famous for his sterling roles in the Akan Drama series and the popular ‘District Colonial Court.’

May he rest in peace.
