Reports circulating on Thursday, October 22, 2026, indicate that Ghanaian actor, comedian and media personality Seth Kwame Dzokoto, popularly known as Kwame Dzokoto, has died.
The announcement was carried in a news alert by GHOne TV. However, details surrounding his reported death, including the cause and circumstances, were not immediately available, and independent confirmation was still being sought.
Dzokoto was a familiar face in Ghana’s entertainment industry, particularly for his role in the popular television series Efiewura, where he became known to audiences for his comic performances.
He also established himself as a broadcaster and television presenter, gaining recognition for his work on TV3’s food and lifestyle programme Edziban, which explored Ghanaian cuisine and food establishments.
From entertainment to politics
Beyond his career in entertainment, Dzokoto ventured into partisan politics as a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
He contested the Tarkwa-Nsuaem parliamentary seat on the NDC ticket in the 2016 general elections but lost to the New Patriotic Party’s George Mireku Duker.
His political involvement added another dimension to his public profile, as he sought to translate his popularity into political representation and community development.
Academic achievements
Dzokoto also pursued further education beyond his work in the entertainment industry. In August 2025, he graduated from the Ghana Armed Forces Command and Staff College with a master’s degree in Defence and International Politics.
The achievement highlighted his interest in academic advancement and public affairs beyond acting and broadcasting.
Health concerns
In September 2026, Dzokoto attracted public attention following reports about his health. In media interviews at the time, he dismissed rumours of his death and said he was recovering from health challenges.
He also spoke about undergoing surgery abroad and expressed appreciation for the support he had received.
As news of his reported death circulates, further confirmation from his family or official representatives is needed to establish the circumstances surrounding the reports.
Further details, including the cause of death and funeral arrangements, had not been independently confirmed at the time of publication.
