Ghanaian fashion designer Sadia Sanusi, founder of Sadia Sanusi Kente, has reportedly passed away.
According to reports, Sadia Sanusi passed away just days before her much-anticipated Kente Artistry Masterclass.
The late Sadia Sanusi is well known for elevating traditional Kente cloth into modern couture, especially bridal and bespoke designs.
The Ghanaian fashion designer, according to reports, started her tailoring business at age 19 in 2012 after she was a second runner-up in the Miss Malaika Ghana pageant.
Her death comes just two days before her scheduled Kente Artistry Masterclass, June 22-26, 2026, which was set to bring together fashion enthusiasts and creatives to explore kente craftsmanship and styling.
Details surrounding her passing remain undisclosed, with the family expected to release further information and funeral arrangements in due course.
Some Ghanaians reacting to the tragic development stated, βThe rate at which young people are dying these days is very troubling. We need to take care of our health and our life choicesβ.
One X user added, βOh hmmmβ¦ she will be having her own master’s class next week Monday oo, and she is gone like that hmmβ.
βHow does a young lady hustle through and become one of the finest in the country, just sleep and not wake up. How????? Rest in peace, Sadia Sanussiβ, a netizen added.
