Ghanaian highlife musician, christened Karim Alhassan, aka Ahenfo, has come out to say what he said about Kofi B after his death was lost in translation.
“Kofi B has been called to glory and according to a highlife musician, his death is God’s plan to make him shine.
“Even though it’s sad that Kofi B has died, to me I think it’s good that he is dead because I believe God took his life to pave way for me to replace him…He was doing dormant singing the same type of singing I do. He died so that Ghanaians would also see the talent in me”.
These and many others are quotes that can be seen in various media outlets, across the country being attributed to musician Ahenfo.
In an interview on Happy98.9FM’s Showbiz Xtra, Ahenfo disclosed, ” I was misquoted for saying God killed Kofi B to make me happy”.
According to him, the interview he had was in the local language, ‘twi’ and it is often not suprising that words are mostly lost in translation when some Ghanaian tabloids write in English.
He made this clarification after Belinda Obeng who is the younger sister of Kofi B, called for his arrest in order to ascertain the real motive behind his comments.
Kofi Boakye Yiadom, better known as Kofi B died on Sunday, February 2, 2020, prior to a scheduled performance at a concert in Cape Coast in the Central region.
The ‘Mmobrowa’ singer, according to a colleague musician, Kofi Nti, complained of chest pains and an unusual heartbeat for which he was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced death on arrival.
He was known for songs such as “Mmbrowa”, “Belinda; “Koforidua Flowers”.
