Seth Kwame Dzokoto gained recognition for his portrayal of Judge Koboo in the Ghanaian television series Efiewura. His talents extended beyond acting as he also served as a television presenter, notably on TV3's Edziban, which showcased Ghanaian cuisine and local food culture. Dzokoto's multifaceted career in media encompassed comedy, acting, presenting, and voice-over work, solidifying his status as an entertainer capable of engaging audiences across various media formats.

His influence was not confined to the entertainment realm alone; he also delved into radio broadcasting, working with stations such as Skyy Power FM in Takoradi and Hello FM in Kumasi. This diverse range of experience within the media industry underscored his versatility and broad appeal. In addition to his professional endeavors, Dzokoto made forays into partisan politics, representing the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2016 general election by contesting the Tarkwa-Nsuaem parliamentary seat.

Tragically, the entertainer passed away on October 22, 2026, after collapsing during a radio show at Owass Radio in the Tarkwa Nsuaem Municipality of the Western Region. He was immediately taken to a hospital in Tarkwa, but succumbed to his injuries en route.
