Veteran Ghanaian gospel singer Comfort Annor has
died Sunday, February 22. The singer, who thrilled
Ghanaians with great gospel songs in the 90s, had
been on admission at the Komfo Anokye Teaching
Hospital for some time now until her death.
The Welfare Officer of the Ashanti regional branch
of the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGHA),
Reverend Talented confirmed this to Adom News.
Although the cause of her death is unknown,
Comfort had disclosed in an interview on Peace FM
about a week ago that she had almost lost her liver
and one of her kidneys.
According to her, since October 2014, she spent
virtually all she had on hospital bills and medication
in several hospitals in the US and in Ghana. She
narrated that she was only told a few days ago by
doctors that her liver and one of her kidneys have
become enlarged and had to undergo a number of
surgeries to correct the defect but lacked the
necessary funds.

“I have been very sick since October 2014, I have
been to virtually every place seeking a solution to
this disease…, I feel severe pains in my stomach, I
can’t eat and I can’t sleep at night. I have spent all
my money (seeking treatment) but I am still not
getting better,” Comfort Annor, with a faint voice,
told Peace FM.
The musician was known for several hit songs
including “Asaase Dah? Gyan” and “W’awo Me ba”,
“Abraham Sarah”, “Mewo Agyapade?”, “Hena Na
W’aye”.
