I followed Onyeka Onwenu to hospital – Peter Obi
…Reveals how songstress died in his presence
Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, agonised over the death of celebrated songstress and actress, Onyeka Onwenu.
Onwenu died on Tuesday night after a scintillating performance at the birthday ceremony of Stella Okoli, Managing Director of Emzor Pharmaceuticals.
The former Anambra State, who was present at the event, shared his experience via a post on his official X handle.
“I was present at the event where the iconic song star, Onyeka Onwenu, performed a couple of her songs ending up with her famous song, ‘One Love Keep Us Together’, Obi wrote.
“It was a beautiful performance, but little did we know it would be her final bow. Just about a few minutes after her performance, she sat down and drank some water and immediately collapsed, and was rushed to the hospital.
“I followed her to the hospital. I watched in pain as the doctors and medical staff fought tirelessly and battled to save her life , doing everything possible to bring her back to life but eventually came out with the sad news that she was gone. Despite their valiant efforts, she sadly passed away after over two hours of intense struggle.
“My heart goes out to her children and family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time. May we find the strength and courage to bear this irreparable loss.”
