President Bola Tinubu has extended his condolences to the family of the late legendary singer, songwriter, actor, and politician, Onyeka Onwenu, who was said to have died on Tuesday night at Reddington Hospital in Lagos.
According to reports, the music icon collapsed at the birthday party of the CEO of Emzor Pharmaceuticals, Stella Okoli, where she had performed, and later passed on aged 72.
Tinubu in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, described Onyeka as the Queen of Songs, whose edifying and mellifluous rendition of ‘One Love’ in the 1990s evoked a fervour of fellowship and harmony.
He extended his condolences to the entertainment industry, the Imo State Government, and the numerous fans of the departed star over the immeasurable loss, praying for the repose of her soul.
