A memorial service for Kwadwo Asare-Baffuor Acheampong (KABA), who passed away on Saturday is currently underway.
KABA was pronounced dead upon arrival at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital where he had been rushed after he suddenly fell sick early Saturday, November 18.
He was 37 years old.
A book of condolence has been opened at the Front Desk of the Radio building of The Multimedia Group at Kokomemle, in memory of the late KABA.
Emotions are pouring out as the memorial service, which is being held at the forecourt of the Radio Building, which houses Joy FM, Adom FM, Asempa FM and Hitz FM, draws tears.
Friends and family of the popular radio talk show host, as well as renowned politicians and captains of industry, have been thrown into a state of shock as they grieve the broadcasters passing.
Veteran broadcaster, Tommy Annan-Forson, says KABA's passing is "a huge shock".
“I’ve known him for a very long time. He was one person who looked up to me for advice, for direction. He was very respectful, very hardworking and so it came as a huge shock…” he recalled.
Citi FM’s morning show host Bernard Avle also described KABA really nice guy and asked for prayers to be said for his wife and daughter who he left behind.
He was noted for his many anti-corruption campaigns.
He tied the knot last year with Class FM’s Valentina Ofori Afriyie and they have a daughter together.

We will miss your morning show with Nana Yaa Brefo, jokes and others. Rest in Perfect Peach KABA
@ Sammy, I share your sentiments. I have never been a social media fan, but its was Kojo KABA's Ekosii S3n that pushed me "hard" to sign-up on facebook to at least see KABA live. I am so broken since the news of his sudden departure. DAMRIFA DUE!!!!
Sooner or later it will be 2pm, and my quest to tune my radio to Asempa 94.7 from where ever i am is always predictable if you are close to me. because it has become part of me not just to listen to the politicians but to listen to my man KABA. What! this is unbelievable, anyway am waiting, just waiting to see if i am not going to hear the usual sounds "Aso nyinaa etie, kurom aye dinnn,, Kwadjo Asare Baafour Acheampong, a.k.a KABA, agye nakonwa, die asi enera, die asi enne, ebeko akosi sen? KABA! kasa! kasa!" and the song of "Yen ara yen asase ni ... then i pay my tribute. ah! what a world.
RIP
This is so doubtful and unbelievable but we have no option than to say may your soul rest in perfect peace KABA
MAY THE SOUL OF OUR DEAREST KABA REST IN PERFECT PEACE.
Due ne amanehunu KABA, Onyame nfa wo kra nsie..damirifa due enyaado
