Audio Attachment:Listen to Kweku Baako Jnr. on KABA |
Editor-In-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper, Kweku Baako has reacted to the death of ace broadcaster and presenter, Kwadwo Asare Baffuor Acheampong, popularly known as KABA, saying his demise "doesn't make sense".
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.
Until his death, KABA was the host of Asempa FM's political show, 'Ekosi Sen'.
He is survived by his wife, Valentina Ofori Afriyie and a seven-month-old baby.
Contributing to a panel discussion on Wednesday’s edition of ‘Kokrokoo’ on PEACE FM, Kweku Baako expressed heartbreak over the fact that he was never able to appear on KABA’s show as planned.
“…he calls me an absentee panelist; people didn’t understand why he often read my messages and so I had an arrangement with him to appear on his show and I kept postponing and so I failed him on that score…it’s very painful but God knows best…too young to go and it just doesn’t make sense,” he said.
Describing KABA's death as tragic, the Seasoned Journalist also found it "interesting how bad old ones like Allotey (Allotey Jacobs, Central Regional NDC Chairman) and himself (Kweku Baako) are alive and the young ones are dying but God knows best.…"

@Asase Aban Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people. Kweku never hate people who are jealous of you, but respect their jealousy because they’re the ones who think you’re better than them.
@Re-Ghanaba. A person's lifestyle contributes significantly to his lifespan. The Giver of life has even told us that whosoever damages his body with an awful lifestyle will be destroyed.(1Corinthians 3:16,17). Learn to cooperate with the Giver of life for a healthy, long life. @ASASE ABAN. What is the offense of Kwaku Baako in what he said?? Envy will kill ppl like you prematurely if you don't change. OMAMA Kwaku Baako ho y3 wahi paa but he is one of the best, balanced journalists in Ghana today.
WEll said FOLKS !!!and good observations ; Kweku Baako comments are just political junketing and self aggrandisement by this arrogant Kweku Baako; who thinks he is the most important journalistic 'RAT' in Ghana ; the evidence is there for anybody to see that most young men in Ghana today are over weight ; eat heavily ; drink heavily and little exercise and pretend to be doing these health walks from Ayi Mensah to Aburi as a an elite event to renew their contacts and do business ; they then end up in beer bars or homes eating 'OMO TUO' huge pieces of meat and heavy drinking ; WHO DOES THESE YOUNG MEN THINK THEY ARE FULLING;as as they any health problems they end up with pastors anfd prayer camps ;WHAT PRIMITIVE MINDS ; even Nana Addo and Dr Bawumia are grossly overweight ; WHAT AN EXAMPLE TO GHANAIANS !!!!! ; look at these parliamentarians in parliament today ; some of them with big bellies like pregnat women; they think by having these big tummies shows how healthy they are-WRONG !!!!; the next problem with these presenters are most of them are under stress; A BIG KILLER IN THE WEST !!!!!! ; they need to relax and take their holidays ; this KABA guy was under strees and ignore the danger signs of dibes and High Blood Pressure ; the same hapeened to this presenter posted from multimedia to the BBC ; this guy was so much engrossed in his work he forgot that anybody can selected to do his job if he dies ; these educated elite should stop fulling themselves that by staying in airconditioned offices from to office does not help them ; they sit in airconditioned cars all day whilst those in the market who exercise in the sun all day are fitter than these so called educated elite ; our hospitals should be made to work and it should start with Nana Addo and Dr Bawumis reducing their weight because they are too over bloated .
Please stop polluting the populace; eating "WELL" and EXERCISING Good is 100% linked to Good Health and Long Life! Stop telling people to serve God well if you cant tell same to Exercise Well... Theses nons3nse must stop if we want to advance as a people...
Total deception. Eating good food, exercising and all that is good but not a guarantee for long life. The giver of life is the only guarantee for long life. Some diseases are even hereditary whiles others maybe due to lifestyle, even that one how come some survive and others don't? Life is a mystery, not so simple as eat good, exercise and all shall be well with you. It is as if someone says to you do good and all shall be well with you. It is not that simple, bad people also succeed in life and evil men sometimes also prosper once again, the giver of success and prosperity is the ultimate guarantee. It is just not that simple. Let the young man rest in peace. He lived a fulfilling life at least to the best of my knowledge and therefore left something behind for all to celebrate about. For after all it is not how long you live that matters but what level of impact you make with the short or long life that is the most important thing. To some were given 5 talent, others three and yet some also got one. What are you doing with the talent you have been given?
It is not about age but how you take good care of yourself. If this young guy can suffer mild stroke then there is something serious with him. We must take our health very serious eating fatty such as fried rice, fast food, soft drinks and not exercising contribute this sudden death. if we want to live longer we should change our eating habit. How many of us think of buying Gym equipment for our home. We think of buying expensive cars for our comfort but not for our health. Many young couple don't cook at home they depend on fast food from road side vender or resturant
