Popular Kumawood actor, Komfo Kolege, has finally found his voice two months after the tragic loss of his wife during childbirth.

His wife, Milicent Oteng, passed on on Saturday, November 17, 2022.

The heartbroken widower, who is still in shock and yet to come to terms with the death, says he personally drove his wife to the hospital.

Speaking in an interview with Kwaku Manu on Aggressive TV, the actor revealed an autopsy report attributed his wife’s death to pressure during her labour.

“The doctors initially didn’t want to tell me until I went for the autopsy report which indicated there was an instant pressure amidst her pain to push. So this rushed blood into her head and cause a tear in her head muscles,” he sadly recounted.

The condition he said, according to medical experts though rare usually leads to instant death or stroke in a person.

He described the death as the most difficult moment in his life, adding he prays no young couple goes through it.

“It is by grace I am even alive because I thought I was going to die too due to what I encountered after the news was broken to me. That clearly taught me that if someone is not strong and you experience this, they may die too,” he said.

Mrs Oteng was laid to rest on Saturday, December 17, 2022.
