Bernard Nyarko (died 2 May 2020),[1] commonly known in show business as Bishop Bernard Nyarko, was a Ghanaian actor and comedian who recently became a full-time preacher.[2][3][4] He was known for the Hero: Service to Humanity (2017) and Sidechic Gang (2018) movies.[5]

Nyarko began his kindergarten education at the Swedru Salvation Army in the Central Region of Ghana, where his parents were staying at the time due to work commitments. He then moved to Primary one at Nsawam, where his mother, who worked at the Public Works Department, stayed. Since his father, who served as a police officer, had been transferred to the Kumawu area, Nyarko moved to Kumawu Presby Primary School for his Primary two (2). He went on to Asem Boys M/A Primary School[8] in Kumasi after his father was transferred to the Zongo Police station in Kumasi.[9] He completed form five at Tweneboah Koduah Senior High School, Kumawu.[10] He finally completed his sixth-form studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High.[11]
Bernard Nyarko was honoured in 2017 by Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) for his contribution to the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS).[14]
