CEO of Kennis Music, the label Goldie
was signed on, Kenny Ogungbe has
issued a statement detailing the final
hours of the late singer. “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
shortly after her arrival from the United States where she went to
witness the Grammy Award. She was
rushed from
her Park View,
Ikoyi, Lagos
residence to
her official hospital,
Reddington,
Victoria
Island, Lagos,
where doctors
pronounced her dead on arrival at exactly 7:30pm
in the evening.We consider this period
a gloomy moment for us and the
entire Nigerian music industry in view
of the circumstance in which she
passed away; the abundance of talent she 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. We
shall keep everybody informed as
events unfold as we are devastated by
the sudden loss.” Goldie’s remains have been deposited
at the Lagos State University Teaching
Hospital, LASUTH mortuary.
