The source which pleaded anonymity stated that the family of the alleged decease tried everything they could to wake her up but did not react.
The source further indicated that they rushed the body which the family believed to be lifeless to a nearby hospital and was confirmed by the doctor that Ms Agbotui has joined her ancestors.
The body of the 101-year-old woman has since been conveyed to the morgue.
The centenarian and mother of the former President celebrated her 101-year birthday this month, about few weeks ago.
In May last year it was rumoured that the centenarian had died but former president Rawlings declared the rumours as false.
A statement from the Office of the Former President signed by the head of the Communications Directorate Kobina Andoh Amoakwa urged the general public to disregard the reports.
Though the former president’s mother was advanced in age, it said the old lady was healthy and strong.
“The office of former President Jerry John Rawlings has taken note of an unfortunate rumour making the rounds about Madam Victoria Agbotui, mother of the former President.
“Madam Agbotui is alive, hale and hearty,” the statement said.
