Nigerians have reacted to the sad death of gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu. She was aged 42 years.

The mother of four was said to have died in an Abuja hospital on Friday, April 8, after battling an undisclosed ailment for months.

Osinachi shot into the limelight with the hit gospel song, “Ekwueme,” which she sang with Prospa Ochimana.

She was also the lead singer at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre. She also featured in songs like “Nara Ekele” by Pastor Paul Enenche (Dunamis, Abuja) and “You no dey use me play” by Emma.

There have been various versions of what led to her death. While some say she died of cancer, others say she was a victim of domestic abuse. However, her friends have insisted she was a victim of domestic violence.

One of her friends, lifestyle blogger Amanda Chisom, accused her husband of being “a control freak whose only interest is to maximize profit from her voice.”

Another close friend said the victim’s husband, who is also her manager, took control of her phones, social media accounts, and bank accounts and received payments for the singer’s ministrations.
