She was reported to have passed away on Tuesday night at the Reddington Hospital in Lagos following a fall during Mrs Stella Okoli’s birthday celebration.
An eyewitness who was present at the party corroborated the news, according to TheNiche.
It is really depressing. Today, Tuesday, July 30, 2024, Onyeka Onwenu performed at Mrs. Stella Okoli’s birthday. Following her performance, she sagged.
The eyewitness stated, “She was taken to Reddington Hospital and she couldn’t make it.”
As at the time of publication, her family had not yet made an announcement on her passing.
Music albums like Dancing in the Sun and In the Morning Light will live on in Onwenu’s memory.
Among other films, she had appearances in Lions Heart and Half of a Yellow Sun.
