According to Kasapa news, Kojo was invited to the ceremony and a party was held afterwards. He was served food and drinks in a room, but soon after consuming them, he collapsed and began foaming at the mouth.
Despite being rushed to the nearby Ajumako District Government Hospital, Kojo was pronounced dead on arrival.

3. Watch for unusual appearances or smells: If food or drinks look or smell unusual, it’s best to err on the side of caution and avoid consuming them.
4. Don’t rush into eating: Take your time when eating, and don’t gobble down food quickly. This will give you a better sense of the taste, texture, and smell of what you’re consuming.
