The “Masakyera” actor passed away on Saturday, May 2, at the Greater Accra Regional Hospital (Ridge Hospital) after a short illness.

According to his brother Isaac Darko, Bernard died a natural death, debunking rumours that he had died under strange circumstances.

Even though there have been some controversies surrounding his death, including accusations of his mother blocking colleague actors who were willing to support him when he was sick, his family is holding a one-week observation in both Accra and Kumasi.

Accra’s event is happening at Lakeside Estate, Ashaley Botwe, and in Kumasi, it’s happening at Pakoso, near Asokore.
