The presenter also detailed what transpired during the late Efiewura actor's appearance at the radio show, and after he was rushed to the hospital for urgent medical treatment.

He said:

"We all sat with him on the radio for our Oman Nkoso show at OWASS FM this morning. He drove himself in his car to the premises for the radio discussions and was given a seat. We took him to the studio at 8:45 am for the start of the programme."
"During the discussions, we realised that he (Kwame Dzokoto) had slowly begun slumping from his chair. So we abruptly ended the show and transported him to the hospital. It was at the hospital where the doctor checked up on him and told us that he had died on arrival."

Gyimah expressed deep sadness at what had transpired, noting that the situation had hit him and others connected to the appearance particularly hard.
