Ghana’s digital community is in mourning following the sudden death of popular TikToker Elvis Frimpong, widely known as Osanju. The award-winning content creator reportedly passed away in his sleep on the night of August 31, 2025, after complaining of body pain earlier that evening.
Just hours before his death, Osanju posted a video reacting to the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, which ended in a 1-1 draw. In the clip, he appeared lively and engaged, showing no visible signs of distress — a detail that has left fans stunned by the abruptness of his passing.
Close friends say Osanju had mentioned feeling unwell before heading to bed, but no one anticipated the severity of his condition. He was later found unresponsive in his room and rushed to Mount Zion Hospital in Koforidua, where he was confirmed dead.
