Breaking News : Singer Goldie Dead!

I'm in shock. Just got a call from her best friend and my close friend, Denrele Edun. He told me Goldie died a few minutes ago in his arms at Reddington Hospital in Victoria Island. Goldie just came back from the US he said, and was so full of life, then something went tragically wrong. Will get all the details from him in a bit, he had to switch off his phone. I'm shaking so bad. She and I had a conversation a few days ago while she was in the US. Oh dear Lord. Is this how people die? May her soul rest in peace..Amen.




OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

[GOLDIE IS DEAD- President, Kennis Music, Keke Ogungbe  ]            
   
 "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 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 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. We shall keep everybody informed as events unfold as we are still  devastated by the sudden loss."  Meanwhile, the remains of  Goldie, who hails from Ekiti State has been deposited in the mortuary of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos.  Goldie represented Nigeria at the Big Brother Star Game in 2012. Her latest effort, she described as  three nawti singles from her forthcoming  African Invasion album are “Skibo”. "Miliki" and " Got To Have It,"  are presently enjoying  heavy rotations  on radio and TV stations across  the continent. Burial arrangements will be announced by the family.  May her soul rest in peace.
Adieu Goldie!!!!
