There’s a new tribute making its way around TikTok, and it’s for Beverly Afaglo Baah, the Ghanaian actress who passed away back in May after a two-year fight with cancer.
This one comes from Reign Oforiwaa, the viral Ghanaian creator behind “The Reign,” and honestly, it’s one of the more thoughtful tributes to come out since Beverly’s passing.
If you’re just catching up: Beverly died on May 24, at the International Maritime Hospital in Tema, four days before she would have turned 43.
It hit the Ghanaian entertainment scene hard. She wasn’t just any actress, she’d been on our screens for close to two decades, and people who grew up watching her felt like they lost someone familiar.
Reign’s video doesn’t rush through the story. It opens with where Beverly came from, the Volta Region, her time studying journalism and PR, and works its way into the roles that made her a household name: Sidechic Gang, Aloe Vera, Return of Beyonce, Girls Connection, The Game. If you were around for Ghanaian TV and film in that era, you know exactly the vibe.
What a lot of people don’t talk about as much is that Beverly wasn’t just acting. She had Glamour Beauty Salon running in Tema, started Traffic Shawarma in 2024, and also had B.A.B Handyman Ghana Ltd going.
She was building on multiple fronts; on top of the acting career everyone knew her for. That part of her story gets its own space in the tribute too.
There’s also the family side. Beverly was married to Choirmaster, the musician from Praye, and they had two daughters together, Violyn and Kora.
The video touches on that bond, and also brings up something a lot of fans remember, how she survived a house fire back in 2021 and still kept going afterward.
Toward the end, it gets personal. The tribute names the people closest to her, Elorm, Caleb Norvi, her family, her friend Roselyn, her colleagues, and closes with Reign’s own words asking that Beverly’s soul rest in peace.
What makes this tribute stand out isn’t just the facts, it’s the tone. It’s written to land with the older crowd who remember Beverly from her early films, and with a younger audience who might be hearing her story for the first time through a TikTok video. And based on the comments, it’s landing with both.
Beverly’s story is still being told across Ghanaian media right now, and Reign’s tribute is one more piece of that, a reminder that her impact went way beyond the screen.
