Kwame Dzokoto dismisses illness reports
As earlier reported by YEN.com.gh, Kwame Dzokoto dismissed reports about his health in September 2026. Concerns were raised after footage of him at The 70 Slate launch at the Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra circulated online.
In a video with Kumchacha, the actor said he was alive and in good health. He also urged bloggers and media practitioners to verify information before publishing it.
False reports, he said, can distress family members who come across them unprepared.
