Ghanaian blogger, Zionfelix, has confirmed the sudden death of the wife of Kumawood actor, Collins Oteng, popularly known as Okomfo Kolege.
Narrating the incident which occurred on Saturday, November 19, 2022, Zionfelix, who had been to the deceased’s family house to confirm the sad news, said she died in a labour ward during delivery.
According to Zionfelix, the baby was also pronounced dead.
“Our brother’s wife is dead. Kolege’s wife is dead. She was going to give birth. God rest her soul. I was listening to Hello FM on Saturday where I first heard the news of Kolege’s wife’s death, I was so shocked. Now I’m in Kumasi. I just came from his house to confirm and its true. The family confirmed. Before that, I went to the lady’s house at Koforidua Tabre together with Otele and it was a sad scene,” he stated in a video spotted on his page.
Zionfelix added that actor, Kolege, is currently inconsolable as he has been struck with two huge loses (his wife and child).
“Kolege is inconsolable. His wife died in the labour ward, together with the baby when they went to give birth. His wife was a nurse and he loved her so much. There is a saying that men don’t cry but my brother has cried his eyes out. We pray God consoles him. If you know him, kindly call him and console him,” he added.
Meanwhile, the burial date for Kolege’s wife has been scheduled for December 17, 2022, at her hometown, Koforidua Tabiri, within the Abuakwa area in the Ashanti Region.
