A few days ago, it was reported that the surgery had been done, but he had been in coma.

“It started in October and I thought it was migraine. I went to the hospital and was told I had a tumour in my head which has caused an enlargement in my left eye. I can’t see with my left eye. It is gradually bulging out of the eye socket. I am really suffering. For about 3 weeks now, I have been indoors,” he said at the time.

The Daddy Lumba look-alike died on January 30, 2019 in India where he had gone to have surgery done on a tumour in his head.

It took Anokye Supremo a while to raise money through donations for the surgery in India.

Before he could leave for treatment in India friends and loved ones helped him to raise about GHS 10, 000 which was needed for the surgery to be done.
