Some African stars, including Didier Drogba, Asamoan Gyan and Nicholas Pepe, have reacted to the death of Ivorian artiste, Ange Didier Huon, aka DJ Arafat.

We had earlier reported that DJ Arafat was involved in a road accident in Abidjan.

Arafat died from injuries on Monday at the Polyclinique des Deux Plateaux in Abidjan.

His motorcycle crashed into a car driven by a Radio Côte d’Ivoire journalist.

“He was admitted to the emergency room in a vegetative state. He had a skull fracture and oedema,” a doctor from the institution told Jeune Afrique on condition of anonymity.

He added that the medical teams tried to revive him, but “in vain”.

“I’m at the clinic where DJ Arafat was admitted. I can confirm that the artist has passed away. I am with Minister of State Hamed Bakayoko to organize with the family,” said Maurice Bandaman, Ivorian Minister of Culture and Francophonie.

Born in 1986 in Yopougon, a town in western Abidjan, the artist liked to claim new nicknames from “Commander Zabra” to “Yorobo” – more recently, he even introduced himself as “Leader of People’s China”.

Below are some reactions gathered on Instagram:

@Asamoan Gyan, “RIP @djarafat hmmm life, love.”

@Nicolas Pepe, “Love Love Love Love.. RIP”

@Didier Drogba, “Love Love Love….”

@Doumbia Seydou “RIP qu ALLAH nous Protege”

@Franck Yannick Kessie, “RIP le DAISHI love Love…”

@Bertrand Traore “RIP L; artiste love @djarafat”

@Gervinho, “Repose en paix l’artiste @djarafat Personne ne mérite de mourrir prématurément, tu vivras pour toujours à travers ta music ��RIP.”

Fist to say, good night Big Bro...

One thing about humans is that, when you are no more.
More of you will be blown to many that gate no time for you while alive.

He that is alive will one day die,
And the dead can never see tomorrow.
Because they have no businesses there.

May Jah bless, and protect I and I itinually

His funeral will bring the whole Cote d'ivore to a standstill...

People don cry tire for that way...He was a movement in Francophone Africa...The god of coupe decale

Yorobo

The legend lives on

R I P
death is inevitable

Ehya

RIP

The guy was riding that bike very recklessly. RIP to him.

You don't have enough information to arrive at that conclusion. Just sympathize if you wish to and move on.

Sometimes God allows your phone to fall so you can shout "Jesus" since you refused to pray

maybe he was going to see his GF



I laugh each time men say they don't understand women.How can you understand what was created when you were asleep

death respects no one



If you ever found love In Africa
You should also try play lotto because you are lucky.

I was recording a voice password for my phone when the dog next to me barked and ran away...Now am out here looking for the silly dog to unlock my phone...

The guy was riding that bike very recklessly. RIP to him.

I can't wait to buy my iphone...I have already bought the big mirror I will be using to take photos with

Hustle oo, so that you'd be noticed when you react.
R.I.P. Dj Arafat

Please people, anything to do with motorcycle please be careful. If possible, always wear a helmet and leave those tricks to the seasoned professionals/movies as your life is greater than few minutes of excitement. RIP DJ Arafat, your music legacy has made your name immortal here.

Some famous people believe their own hype and feel they are superhuman. Taking crazy risk. Like Paul Walker of fast and furious.

This superhuman complex also affects rich kids like Buhari's son

From the video of him riding that bike moments before the crash, it looked quite reckless to me.

Everybody go die..Christ remains the ONLY way. RIP

Going by the way the powerbike was shattered in the pics, it means he was on an outrageous speed before the impact. He forgot that a Rolling stone gathers no Mass..

Well, Somthing must still kill a man. Rip the Touching body crooner..

Life is too short....
RIP

See life self. This guy sang touching body with J Martins back then. Rip bro

Ayo lo paa (over enjoyment kill him)
