Nigerian Afrobeats star Patoranking is mourning the tragic loss of his sister, Chioma, who died in a gas explosion that occurred at her home.
According to reports, the explosion claimed her life instantly, while her husband, George, succumbed to his injuries days later on Wednesday, September 11, 2024.
The heartbreaking news was shared by media personality Cutie Juls via Instagram on Thursday.
In a post, she included a video showing the aftermath of the explosion at the family’s home, revealing that the tragic incident happened shortly after the family had celebrated a housewarming and their child’s birthday.
Cutie Juls also highlighted the efforts made to save George, mentioning that Patoranking went to great lengths to help, including purchasing large amounts of blood in a desperate bid to keep his brother-in-law alive.
Unfortunately, despite the attempts, George did not survive, leaving their child orphaned.
The singer’s deep bond with his sister was well-known, and this loss has hit him hard.
Cutie Juls expressed concern for Patoranking’s well-being, urging his friends to rally around him during this difficult time.
As of now, neither Patoranking nor his management has made any official statement regarding the devastating incident.
The tragedy has left fans and loved ones in shock, with many offering their condolences to the grieving family.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
