“Pharaoh passed away in the early hours of Sunday, May 23, 2021, at the young age of 45 years old as a result of a car accident in Abuja, Nigeria.
“He was an enchanting young man who, guided by his illustrious father, was determined to make his mark with the smile and cheer unique to him. Unfortunately, the ending chapter of his life was advanced too soon. In compliance with Covid-19 protocols, the family shall hold a private interment for our dearly departed.”
