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 has been deposited at the
mortuary.
