“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.
Seriously I'm still in great shock. I had a wonderful relationship with her and we were good friends; this makes it even harder for me. May her sweet soul rest in the bosom of our Lord. Amen.
