Super OD was taken ill last Saturday, according to son Simon Darko, after complaining of weakness. He has not been well for some time now. He unfortunately gave up the ghost on Tuesday at the Swedru Government Hospital in the Central Region. Past and present presidents have joined mourners to pay tribute to the Osofo Dadzie icon. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and former president John Dramani Mahama took to Twitter to express their condolences. President Akufo-Addo tweeted:
For Mr Mahama, this comes after recent fatal heartbreaks and, probably, the country’s bereavement continues:A legend of our screens and a great entertainer, he brought so much joy to us over the years. I belong to the generation that will never forget “Osofo Dadzie”. My deepest condolences to his family. Rest in perfect peace Super O.D., and God bless.
