Goldie’s Death Update: Prezzo Devastated, Heads To Lagos, As Milicent Plans Mass In Kenya

Goldie’s close friend and partner Prezzo is on his way to Lagos, following the death last night of the entertainer and Big Brother alumnus.
Our correspondent in Kenya says Prezzo’s friend, Shaffie Weru spoke to Prezzo’s mum who confirmed that
her son left for Nigeria on Thursday night most probably after getting the news of Goldie’s death. Shaffie is a radio presenter with Kiss 100.
We’re told Prezzo, who met Goldie while both were housemates at the Big Brother Africa Stargame in 2012, is ‘beyond shocked’.
Meanwhile another Big Brother colleague Milicent Mugadi says it’s difficult for her to digest the news of Goldie’s death. ‘Later in the day I will organise together with a few friends to have a private mass to remember Goldie. May she rest in peace. I still cannot digest the news’, she said.
A statement credited to Kennis Music boss Keke Ogungbe says the late singer was dead on arrival at Reddington Hospital, in Victoria Island, Lagos. Cause of death is yet to be known.
MILD HEADACHE
A statement from Kennis CEO Keke Ogungbe says she singer complained of mild headache.
‘  “On behalf of Kennis Music, I’m sad to  officially confirm the shocking and untimely  passage of Nigeria’s pop star, Goldie Harvey.   With a  deep sense of loss, we announce the shocking death of our darling music star, Goldie Harvey. Goldie, 31, died on Thursday after she complained of a severe headache at her Park View, Ikoyi, Lagos residence shortly after her arrival from the United States where she went to witness the Grammy Award.
She was rushed to her official hospital, Reddington, Victoria Island, Lagos, where doctors pronounced her dead on arrival.
We consider this period  a gloomy moment for us and the entire Nigerian music industry in view of the circumstance Goldie passed away, the abundance of talent she has exhibited in her short  but eventful music career  and the various opportunities her trip to the United States of America would have availed her.
She is survived by her  father, step- mother, brothers and sisters.
We deeply sympathise with her family and fans all over the world and  very grateful to all and sundry, especially, the vibrant Nigerian media  for their concern and prompt reportage.
