Agya Koo’s Facebook Statement

How the Agya Koo Death Rumour Started
According to YEN.com.gh, the false report was spread by a TikTok account operating under the handle @blackgod.
The post claimed the popular comic actor had died. It quickly drew attention online, prompting concerned fans, colleagues and family members to seek confirmation.
No official source, family member or management representative had announced any such news before the actor himself came out to set the record straight.
“I Am Alive, Healthy”: What Agya Koo Said
In his Facebook post, Agya Koo made it clear that the report had no truth in it.
“I want to assure my beloved fans, family, and the general public that this news is 100% FALSE,” he wrote.
He added: “I am alive, healthy, and by the grace of God, I am doing very well.”
The actor also thanked the many people who called and sent messages to check on him. “Your love touched my heart. I am okay,” he said.
Actor Condemns Death Hoaxes for Social Media Clout
Agya Koo described the TikTok publication as entirely fabricated and suggested the page was chasing attention and engagement.
He condemned the practice of inventing death reports about people for social media clout, describing it as wicked and insensitive, according to YEN.com.gh.
Team Moves to Trace Those Behind the Post
The Kumawood star said his team is working to identify the individuals behind the false report, and that appropriate action will follow.
He also appealed to the public to stop sharing the claim and asked social media users to report the @blackgod page to the platform.
The page had not publicly responded to the actor’s statement at the time of writing.
Not the First Death Hoax Involving Agya Koo
This is not the first time the actor, born Kofi Adu, has had to deal with false reports about his death. Similar rumours have circulated in previous years, and on each occasion he came out to reassure fans that he was well.
The latest incident comes only weeks after Agya Koo spoke about how false news affects the industry. At the Ghana Legends Awards at the National Theatre in Accra in October, he said he did not want to believe reports of the death of Efiewura actor Kwame Dzokoto because of earlier false rumours about him.
“I don’t believe that Kwame Dzokoto is dead due to false rumours. I will only believe when I personally confirm,” he said at the time, according to YEN.com.gh. Sadly, Dzokoto’s death was later confirmed.
A Familiar Problem for Ghanaian Celebrities
False death reports remain a recurring problem for public figures in Ghana, where unverified posts on TikTok, Facebook and WhatsApp can spread widely within hours.
Such posts often cause distress to the families and friends of the people involved, and force celebrities to make public statements simply to prove they are alive.
Agya Koo remains one of the best-known faces of the Kumawood film industry, alongside colleagues such as Kyeiwaa, who recently spoke about the financial struggles actors face. Earlier this year, he also made headlines when he advised Ghanaian youth to return to their villages and farm.
Fans Relieved as Actor Puts Rumour to Rest
With his Facebook statement, Agya Koo has put the rumour to rest and reassured his followers that he is doing well. Fans have been urged to rely on his official pages and credible news outlets for any information about him.
