Mrs Ego Ogbaro, a former back-up vocalist for mask wearing Yoruba artist, Lagbaja, has lost her husband, Niyi Ogbaro.
Nigerian journalist, Chris Kehinde confirmed the death of Niyi Ogbaro.
He said Ogbaro died in the United States of America on Wednesday, August 30. Though, he did not disclose the cause of his death.
While sharing a photo of the couple via his official Instagram page on Thursday, he wrote “Ohh No Victor Niyi Ogbaro this can’t be true. Victor husband of Ego died today from what I just learnt. May his soul Rest In Peace.”
Ego tied the knot with Niyi Ogbaro in 2009. They, however, lived apart for a while. Before her husband’s death, Ego reportedly removed Ogbaro from her social media handles fuelling rumours of trouble in their marriage.
