I've just heard the news via Facebook, and I'm completely stunned. The outpouring of condolences on Twitter says a lot about the popularity of him. 41 is just no age at all - what a legend of BBC broadcasting.

Komla was a beacon for Africans and for African news for a world audience. An incredible professional, likeable and forever smiling presenter and journalist. I will miss him on the BBC. My thoughts are with his family.

Oh my goodness I can't believe what I am reading

This is truly awful and such shocking news. Thoughts are with family, friends and colleagues.

The first report on the domestic BBC News channel:

Doubt if any US Embassy has recorded the news of a non US Journalist before ....

The IUS Embassy in Ghana has marked Komla's passing ,,,,

RIP Komla Dumor, great ambassador of Ghana & role model for journalists worldwide! #RIPKomlaDumor
