Another Nigerian Music Star Is Dead

Something drastic needs to be done to avert these deaths in Nigeria�s entertainment world. On the average, by the time one is buried, there are 2 or 3 waiting in the morgue. It was yet another sad day for the entertainment industry when the death of fast rising star, Obiajulu Nwaozor aka MC Loph of �Osondi Owendi� fame was reported on Wednesday. The talented musician, born Nwaozo Obiajulu, according to our source, died when he lost control of his Ford Durango SUV which he bought only a few weeks ago. The vehicle skidded off the road and somersaulted into a ditch. He died on the controversial Benin-Ore road before help could reach him. An unconfirmed report said his Abia state-born fianc�e, a medical practitioner, also died. Mc Loph, who shot into national prominence with the release of a remix of the late highlife legend, Osita Osadebe�s hit song �Osondi Owendi�, was on his way to Enugu State for his traditional wedding with his fiancee. Prior to his demise, the hardworking musician had recently finished recording a duet with Faze on a song titled �I Know What The Girls Want.� He had recently, in the words of a close aide, concluded talks with a prominent music video producer, Patrick Ellis, to begin shooting an accompanying video for the new single which is currently enjoying air play nationwide.
