Kwabena Kwakye, popularly known as Wofa KK, a prominent broadcaster at Oman 107.1FM, part of Kencity Media in Accra, has passed away.

According to reports, Kwakye arrived for work today but fell ill suddenly, leading to his untimely demise.

The heartbreaking news was shared by Adom News Editor Akwasi Agyemang during Adom FM’s Midday News.

Wofa KK was a respected figure in the broadcasting community and made significant contributions to Oman FM’s programmes.

He was known for his roles on shows like “Boiling Point” and “National Agenda,” often filling in for the regular host, Fiifi Boafo.

Before joining Oman FM, Kwakye worked with Adom 106.3 FM, a subsidiary radio station of the Multimedia Group Limited. Additionally, he served as a Parliamentary and Presidential correspondent for Net2 TV.
