In a post that went viral on social media, Dada KD was mourning a colleague in the showbiz industry and added that he would join them soon.

In May 2020, when Kumawood actor Bishop Bernard Nyarko died, Dada KD paid tribute to him with a simple message on social media. Bishop Bernard Nyarko died on May 2, 2020.

“May your gentle soul find you a perfect place to keep you, Bishop Bernard Nyarko. My regards to Kofi B and tell him it won’t be long, I’ll join you all too soon,” Dada KD wrote.

Highlife musician Kofi B also died on February 2, 2020, as a result of a heart attack before performing at a concert in Cape Coast. He was pronounced dead on arrival after being rushed to a hospital.

The post was shared in 2020 and garnered several comments, where many sympathised with Dada KD and asked that he seek medical attention.

Francis Osei said

“This guy needs help, he doesn't seem to be happy in his life. I have followed he interviews and the comments suggest that he feels disappointed.”
