The Ghanaian entertainment landscape has been plunged into a state of profound shock and mourning following the sudden and tragic passing of one of its brightest stars, Beverly Afaglo. The beloved actress passed away over the weekend at the age of 42.
Official Confirmation
The heartbreaking news was formally confirmed by her husband, Eugene Baah, popularly known as Choirmaster of the legendary Ghanaian music group Praye. In a deeply emotional announcement shared on social media on Sunday, May 24, 2026, Choirmaster broke the news to fans and the general public, asking for prayers during this difficult time.
A Two-Year Cancer Battle
While her death came as a shock to many, Beverly had been fighting a private health battle. According to her manager, Abu Iddris, the actress had been battling breast cancer for the past two years. Abu Iddris revealed that the disease was genetic and highly aggressive, eventually metastasizing despite her rigorous fight.
Beverly sought treatment in the United States but ultimately made the brave decision to return to Ghana to spend her final days surrounded by the love and warmth of her children, husband, and extended family.
Industry Outpour of Tributes
The news of her demise has triggered a massive outpouring of grief from colleagues across both Ghallywood and Nollywood. Social media has been flooded with tributes honoring her talent and vibrant personality.
The emotional toll of her passing was laid bare in a viral video showing fellow actor James Gardiner breaking down in uncontrollable tears during a condolence visit to her residence, a moment that has deeply touched the hearts of the public.
Prophecy Controversy
In the wake of the tragedy, an old video featuring Prophet Eric Boahen Uche predicting the demise of an “actress whose name begins with B” has resurfaced and is making rounds online.
This development has sparked sharp criticism from several industry players, including film director Pascal Amanfo. Amanfo and others have strongly condemned the circulation of the video, urging bloggers and the public to respect the grieving family’s privacy and put an end to the sensationalism during this painful period.
One-Week Observance
As the industry comes to terms with this monumental loss, the family has announced details for her memorial. The formal one-week observance ceremony will be held on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at the Green Flavour Events Centre, where friends, colleagues, and well-wishers will gather to pay their respects.
The management and team at Sammyflextvgh.com extend our deepest condolences to Choirmaster, their children, and the entire bereaved family. May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
