Authorities are yet to issue an official statement as of the time of filing this report.
The Anambra State-born artist Sabi, whose real name was Sabinus Chukwuebuka Nelson Obi, rose to prominence in the early 2010s as an Afro-pop act with a knack for catchy, danceable tunes with ‘Show Your Style’, a track that gained popularity within Nigeria’s Afro-pop scene and later earned a remix featuring Oritse Femi.
Further details are expected to be released as investigations into the incident continue.
