The unfortunate incident happened in the evening of Friday, Febraury 7, 2025, while the actor was asleep in his bedroom.

“Beyond Burns International got an SOS that something unfortunate has happened. We came here today, and veteran actor Mawuli Semevo has been involved in a severe fire accident. I came here to see him, and his life is hanging in the balance,” she revealed in a video shared on social media.
She further explained that the actor has suffered burns on 44% of his body, affecting his breathing and leaving him with significant injuries from head to toe. “This is very serious. From his head to his legs, everywhere caught fire, and he has lost all his hair,” she added.
