Award-winning Ghanaian comedian Lekzy DeComic is set to thrill comedy lovers with a historic comedy concert that will unite four generations of Ghanaian comedy.
Dubbed ‘Lekzy Unleashed: The Godfather Edition’, the mega show is slated for Friday, November 7, 2026, at the UPSA Auditorium in Accra.
The two-time Comedian of the Year is assembling a star-studded line-up of Ghana’s finest, from the pioneers who paved the way to the new faces dominating the scene.
Headlining the night are the undisputed legends of Ghanaian comedy: Kweku Sintim-Misa (KSM), Fritz Baffour, and Tommy Annan-Forson.
KSM is touted as the Undisputed King of Comedy, after famously filling the National Theatre for 13 sold-out nights and cementing his brand as Ghana’s finest satirist.
Fritz Baffour became the Father of Prime Time Comedy, starting stand-up comedy in Ghana in 1986 with Tommy Annan-Forson at a time when no one believed anyone could make a living making people laugh.
Tommy Annan-Forson’s story is equally iconic – he was the first to laugh on state-owned radio (GBC) and got queried for it, before taking his humour to the stage.
They will be joined by a powerhouse of contemporary comedy kings including Clemento Suarez, DKB, Foster Romanus, Jeneral Ntatia, Kwaku Manu, Khemikal, Mr Beautiful, David Oscar Dogbe, Parrot Mouth, Percy Obrempong, James Brown, and Jeffery Nortey.
Adding an international flavour to the night is South African comedy sensation, Chris Mapane.
The comedy night will also be spiced with music from Ghana’s Rap Doctor, Okyeame Kwame.
According to Lekzy, the ‘Godfather Edition’ is more than just a comedy show, it is a tribute to the men who sacrificed to make comedy a respectable profession in Ghana.
“Over the years these two have not just proven their mettle as pacesetters of comedy in Ghana. They have supported the younger generation of comedians in various ways,” he noted.
Comedy shows of Lekzy has over the years become one of the most anticipated comedy shows on the Ghanaian entertainment calendar, and this Godfather Edition promises to be the biggest yet.
