Paying tribute to him in a Facebook post, veteran broadcaster KKD stated that the dance champion brought so much excitement and joy to Ghanaians wherever he got on a stage or dance floor.

“Today, those talents you shared with the world just for fun, your labour of love has become a popular profession. You and your colleagues paved the way for the talent we enjoy in dance choreography at national events and in numerous music videos.

“Life: How unpredictable you are and how fragile we are. Handsome, talented, fashionable, outspoken Alex Ofori. Ready to battle anyone who dared to claim he has what it takes to be a dance champ,” he wrote.
